Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

[mzstre]

Beautiful birds!

Thanks - I just love them! I've had them running with my laying flock and they have integrated perfectly with the LF. I'm trying to restrain myself, but I would really like a couple more girls to go with my mottled cockerel.

This is great, and I will definitely be checking out general reviews when I am looking for eggs.
However, maybe it should be in a particular form and just stick to facts, so people can make their own judgements, and there wouldnt be any negative feelings.
This is what I think the format should be.
Mine is an example from eggs I bought off the buy boards


Shipper/Seller: cowgirl75446
Type of Eggs: 30 pure breed mix
Date Requested: 10/9/12

Just realized I should be posting this on the other board- guess I will do both

I just fixed my very old swap page up. I have made a list of my birds and # of hens & roosters. Yes I am a hoarder and at last count was at 195 plus chicks and eggs..and that does not include my ducks, geese, peacocks, pheasants, pigeons & quail .

Also a list of swaps I owe & owed to me.

Any errors or missing items...please PM me.

Pictures are on my profile and I promise to get out there soon and get some new and updated pictures.

Thank you KYTinpusher for keeping a list of everyone's swap pages in your signature, I have no idea how I would have found it otherwise.

Here are this week's current standings as of 8:00AM, Tue. Nov. 13. For all potential new swappers, we welcome your participation, but please read the rules on page 1, post #1 of this thread.

Game #1 - Whenever someone goes over 7 swaps, they lose 2 swaps the following week. The first person to catch it and post "Jinx"- (name of person going over), gets an extra swap in the current week. If crazypetlady (CPL) goes over, everyone gets an extra swap that week, and the first person to catch her and post "Jinx-CPL" gets a special prize of eggs from CPL. Start stalking!


Game #2 - Whoever claims the 50th, 75th, and 100th swap of the day (yes, I think we will get up that high this spring or before) will win an extra wild card swap to be used in the winner's week of choice.


Those in red are done swapping until 12:01 EST on Sun. Nov. 18. Those in yellow are getting close to a limit.

OK, let me see if I can explain this better. Below is a list of the new swappers that still have to complete their initial 7 swaps, so are limited to one swap at a time until each one is verified. Once you have been cleared by crazypetlady, reesepoultry, kraftyladies, or coffeekittie for another swap, you may claim another, regardless of what my list says. I don't keep track of whose swaps have been verified, just the swappers that need to have that done. My list is only published once a night, but your swapping status may change a few times during the day. Once all of your 7 initial verified swaps are completed, your name will be moved to the big list. I may not have everyone's name here that is already swapping, but all new swappers will be added here until I hear differently. As long as all your previous swaps have been completed and verified, you are good to go! Happy swapping!

So are you taking newcomers again? Last I heard no new swappers.

Yes I do believe we are. Please re-read the rules.

CPL posted an okay for new swappers on the main thread last night, I think. I'm new and am wondering how one is cleared for other swaps? Is it an automatic process or is there something else I need to do?

My offer was paypal and I waited until the next person's offer was accepted and then sent payment to the person who accepted my offer. I apologize if this has already been addressed, just wondering how it works so I don't break any rules.

The person you sent the pp to is supposed to tell one of the thread admins, then they will let you know that you are cleared. They may not have done so, you may want to check in with them (the recipient).

You are cleared to swap again-sorry, I forgot to post it.

No problem, just making sure. Thanks very much!
