Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

I can't believe I did that. Ugh. How can I correct this? Should I just wait and hope that the offer is accepted? I'm really sorry guys..

Don't worry about it! Just may want to wait in the future so you don't end up having to get one reversed if an offer gets rolled back.

I updated my swap page with information about my flock. I will try to get some more pics in my albums soon. I think I may create a Flock Information page and move the info so my swap page will be less cluttered and confusing. I'll put a link in my sig if I do that.

I like this idea, a flock information page separate from the swap page.

I updated mine in my signature to have my birds in both my swap page and also on the "meet the Henson Acres flock" page. Great idea!

Just got my Cochin eggs from greeneacres! All six intact from being well packed. My first swap is complete... Now if only I was getting eggs to do more swapping!!

Okay, if someone is working on getting pictures and data typed up on their many breeds and 50+ birds, I propose there be a grace period to comply with the new rule that just went into affect. I don't think that very many people have the ages and pictures of each bird they own up on this site, and doing that in one day is simply unrealistic for many swappers.

Also, jumping on someone's back because they don't have all this information up, WHILE they are offering eggs that are available now seems catty and rude. If someone chooses to take the SPRING offered eggs, that's their choice. Why can't we all just get along?

I also got the new myers hatchery catalog in the mail today. I skimmed through it and saw they have changed Ameruacana description. They now sell what they call true Ameruacana as well as their old Easter eggers separately.

Get this. They are selling true ameruacanas for $20 ea for a pullet chick. How do I make the gasping, or jaw dropping smiley face?? Cuz GASP!!!

I'm sorry if people thought my comment was rude, but I don't take it back. I think it's rude for someone to blatantly ignore the rules while everyone else has to follow them. There IS a grace period, it's called don't swap until you can comply with the rules. Seems pretty straightforward to me, and there are plenty of people on the swap who have already provide the information, no problem.

The sad thing is they will still likely be regular hatchery quality. At least they are differentiating between them now which will help educate people!

I hope it'll be educational too. I have both true Ameraucanas as well as a couple of EE's and have had to explain the difference on occasion. Lots of people think EE's ARE Ameraucanas.. not to be a snob or anything..
