I still have a blue Orpington roo and black pullet pair, and 2 EEs-roo and pullet pair. I will also have a few brown Coturnix. If anyone is interested in them, make me an offer!

I missed this part earlier. I would say just scrap them, unless someone else volunteers. You have done so much already! I'm not a big ribs fan, so that's my vote

Thanks Shelley! We shall see what happens, ROb loves ribs but I just made some a few days ago, maybe brats instead.

Hey do you have any BTW Jap eggs oe pullets for sale? I hatched 2 roos and need some girls for them

I only have 2 pullets myself right now, and one of them is setting eggs. I have a few young ones, but they are very young, and I don't know what sexes they are just yet. My millie hen has 1 BTW baby, hers are older, so I might be able to tell what that one is. My luck it's a male

I'll see what I can do

ETA: I don't know where the other jap is laying her eggs at either, so I can't even promise those

I might be able to bring some brats, Save-a-lot has them on their pick-5 thing. Idk if I'll have the $$ for them though.

If nothing else I have a beautiful roo I could trade

 

[Attack Chicken]

The bad thing for me about bringing home new bird is that I almost have no were to quarentine them... We have only 1coop build out of the 2 we were supposed to build. Almost all of the bantams and 1 of the 2 Leghorn girls live out in the coop. I currently have 3 chicks in the tub in my room, 4 olded ones in a box in my living room, next to that box I have 2 wyandottes that live in a dog crate, and downstairs Kernal And Krispy live... I will have no clue were to do the quarentine at.

If I do give Kernal to Miss_Jayne(which I hope not to,No offense Miss_Jayne) I would probably be able to get Krispy out in the coop with the other bantams and Iona the other leghorn.

If I don't give Kernal away he would have to be kept downstair with Krispy and with the new chooks that come home in quarentine with them. The bad thing is it would kill him not being about to go outside.

One way or another 1 or more of my birds will have to be kept with the new ones. Not that I don't trust people that I might be getting pullets from it's just that quarentine is the best to do everyone says.

Any suggestions?

I'm thinking I'd like to have a silkie...does anyone have a silkie they could bring? (or I could get before the party) I don't know if I have anything to trade, but would be happy to buy from you.

I have some pet-quality white youngsters, and a pet quality black cockerel. What color/sex are you looking for?

I'd like to have hens, maybe two? It doesn't matter the color. It would be neat-0 just to have one! Are you coming to the party? I don't think I could travel to KY.

I do have two hens we would like to trade. One Dark Cornish, and one Silver Laced Wyandotte. They are 1 year old, not moulted yet. The Silver Laced Wyandotte was pretty beaten up by the 4 roos we had. She is missing quite a few feathers on her back. All the hens are getting a break now. But, these ladies are up for trades.

As far as I know, we are a go for the party still! My whites are pretty young though, and it is very difficult to determine the sex of these silly birds!
