Dinky Springs, la
Hey guys, it's been a couple of months since we had any discussion about a get together.....anyone interested?
I am willing to host again unless someone else wants to throw their hats in the ring. I'll also have to pool put up tomorrow, so we;ll be able to cool off as necessary.
Want to try to shoot for Aug 29th?
Y'all let me know, my house ain't the Taj Mahal, but y'all are all welcome!!!
 
I am not sure if I will be able to make it or not on that date because my husband will be offshore. I will try though. He is going to be leaving the day before.

I might be able to make it. Maybe I will try to drag my in laws with me. They are into raising seramas and quail. So I am sure they would enjoy meeting everybody. I really wanted my hubby to go with me though.

Rachel, your inlaws are welcome!
La Poulet I am in Denham, I just call it Dinky Springs cause it's small!
Joyeaux, we'd love to meet you too!! Come on over!

We can pretty much make it any weekend y'all want to do it, I just threw out the 29th. I'll be happy to have any and everybody i can meet! So for any who can't make it, if you have another date that works, put it out there and we can go from there, it'll just give us more time to plan.

And I do think I'll definitely be able to do a plucker demo this time since we have an abundance of roosters out back. I like most of them, but there are just too many!!!

I'm comin' this time. House should be finished, and all the scrap/leftovers from the renovation should be forming up the coop by the end of the month.

Looking forward to meeting y'all. Aug 29 is good for me, but could also do different dates (except Oct 9-11) if there's a movement toward a change.

Is it kosher to post a wish list?

Whenever is good for everybody else is fine. Who knows, my husband could have some kind of delay on going to work and make it anyway. I am going to do my best to come! I really want to meet everybody!
 
Hey guys! I wanted to bump this, but I thought it wasn't cool to do so........I'm glad this post got some more action!

I haven't heard much feedback about changing the date, and I was just giving as many people as possible the opportunity to make it....so, we can keep it or change it, y'all decide!

Right now we are looking at Aug 29th at my house in Denham Springs. Starting around noon? I'll get together some tables to put stuff on if y'all are bringing anything. I have several chairs on my porch, but everybody might need to bring a couple if you have them.
We can have a pot luck style meal, maybe with hotdogs or burgers, chips, some other sides, desserts.......I have a 12 X 3 pool that adults and kids can enjoy and most little kids are tall enough in it. I'll plan to have plucker demos, and if y'all want to take home a fresh chicken, I can sell what we process, and if you want to process some of your own, let me know.


And if y'all are bringing animals, go ahead and list what you'll have here, and if you want something specific, list it here too.

I have EE 8 week old babies and at least one Black Copper Maran roo that is the same age. I also have several assorted roos that if any of y'all like them, they can get a reprieve....

Oh Rachel, are you interested in selling a fainting goat? I really want one!!!

I'm interested in an EE baby, I think.

I'm really interested in compiling an assortment of 5 pullets and/or hens. Open to most breeds. Prefer friendly personality, then laying frequency; must be coop aged (no brooder or incubator, nor the skillz required to maintain either).

I would LOVE to get 'em all locally, and not fuss with this shipping thing. (I have a cage/kennel that we'd put in the back of the truck, up against the cab. Is that sufficient? Could maybe bring the car instead, if I get a couple new tires...)

So, let me know what you got! I'm DYING to do this. Really.

(Do I have to quarantine for 30 days if I get birds from different people? If so, from who am I quarantining whom?)
