I was at the Clay County Goat & Poultry Auction. So, do people just swap birds at a Poultry swap?

N-o-o
You've never been to a poultry swap? There has to be one for every county here. Though I've never been to an auction, so it must be an equivalent.
If I had known you were not enlightened on this subject I would take pictures.


Soooo basically...
People pay a fee to get in. Sometimes the money goes back to the 4-H club poultry project, like in our local one, but in the case of large swaps like Fondy, it goes to a different poultry club.

So the sellers of birds also pay a fee usually, which may he different from the buyer fee because you take up space (and these things are packed)
You go into a barn at a fairground and sellers set up cages selling

• Rodents
• All poultry except turkeys because diseases
• Peafowl, pheasants, rheas, emus, ect.
• Waterfowl of any kind include the wild semidomesticated kind
• Quail
• Pups and kittens
• Pigeons
• Pet birds
• Other pets
• Cages
• Feathers
• Books
• Eggs for hatching or eating
• Anything else poultry related imagineable
• Boxes to take your birds home in because you are an irresponsible human

Sellers then advertise their birds as well as sell them, or just sell them, for prices they devise.
They are put into rows and usually stand by their stock, but can wander and admire other. birds.
Say an item or breed, I'll tell you if it was there. (Most likely was.)
Our family only planned on looking, but we bought Anconas.
We have sold at them before, and tho it was cold, we made profit. Once we sold every bird we brought.

Oh. You didn't get much? At all? *dumps like a zillion inches of snow on you*
It's finally melting, but we got almost 60 inches just this February. Also though there is rain, more snow on Sunday.

@HuffleClaw, think of a breed they didn't sell.
