I can't seem to get any to hatch. In pigeons I have rollers, homers, fantails, 1 pair of modenas, 8 frillbacks, 4 parlor tumblers. I have a trio of lavender guineas.

Unfortunately, I probably won't have any chickens to trade, but if I get myself in gear, I may have some hand spun yarn, or possibly a couple of woven rugs if anyone is interested.

Here are 2 examples, the one in the back was just made out of some scraps i had laying around the house.

Never mind the fact that they are covered in dog hair in the pics (guess that means I get to wash rugs tomorrow

)

Count me in!!!! I live on the SE side of Indy, so right around the corner

I will probably be by myself, I have yet to bring my dh over to the "chicken-side," but I may bring my kids or a friend! Its on a weekend that I would usually have ds' bday party, but I am actually going to schedule his bday party around this one

I will be more than happy to bring a ginormous pasta salad filled w/yummy goodies from my garden.

I will not, however, be able to bring any eggs or animals to trade/sell, my flock will not be laying quite yet (I think). But I may purchase, especially since my dh won't be with me

I can't wait!!!!!!!!!

Cool, I have you down Mandy and the pasta salad sounds great. Thank you!!


mwdh1 The rugs look great and I think I need a couple. Don't worry about the hair, that's what my cats would have their hair in too!

I'm sure we can work something out, The loom will allow me to go up to 36 inches wide, and however long I choose. The rug in the front pic is aprox. 3 X 3 for a size reference. Also I can do finished (sewn) edges, or fringed edges whichever you or the cats would prefer. Let me know with some details of what you would like. Trades are welcome

ETA: I may also be able to bring a 10x10 pop-up gazebo if you need to use it.
