Mine on the standard cochins!!! LOL I really do want some little pullets if you have them, particularly splash.

What color Silkies?? the silkies are all gone-sorry

Looks like I ma going to have some RIR chicks, some blue and black bantam cochins and a few Ameraucana (nice out of show stock, I'm told) an Araucana with tail and no tufts, so I guess you could call him an EE and maybe some Silkie roos of pet quality.

I haven't tried to sex the cochins, and I don't know that I would trust myself to do so-since I haven't raised them enough years from chick to hen.....I'll bring what I have and anyone interested can come to their own conclusions.

I also have guinea keets that I'll be bringing.

Lets see, call ducklings someone asked about those- $10 each and I'm not positive on sexes yet as the voices haven't changed. But I've got white, buff and snowy. I also have black east indie ducklings which are very adorable! $10 ea. BEI are a smaller than calls if you can believe it.........

Cya Sunday!

I have someone bringing 5 week old Heritage Chocolate Turkeys (16 of them). She also has a 1 year old Tom for sale and a 2 year old Tom for sale.

She is looking for Turkens and ducks

ETA: she may also be bringing Roosters to get rid of

I just got off the phone with the guy that is letting us use the fairgrounds and all is looking good

Does everyone have a street or road address for the Litchfield fairgrounds?

Good directions for the out-of-towners would probably be helpful....

JMHO

Woooohoooooo! The chinese auction is looking good, I don't have huge amounts, but enough to make people smile!
Hope everyone likes the items.
Oh, does anyone have tickets or should I just use names?
I also think it should be raffled off with people there to collect their items! I honestly do not want to bring anything home!!!!
Remember, cook books a few hunting books, I believe there are a few that are old. I'd like a dollar a peice for them, so please please please come!!!!
I did suggest to the local Organic store in my town that we would love to have articles and people to share organic knowledge with us. Like I said earlier in the forum that I asked a woman from MOFGA (Maine Organic Farmers Gardeners Association) and never heard back from her.
I did print up a number of Biosecurity, have a book for people to sign, just for fun to see how many come in through the gates. Looks like we need to hang out close to the gate!
Also Spirit of Hope (horses) please put a Jar up for donations, PLEASE!!! It will be awsome if you can get money, not just from food!!! I did put on the signs that I posted your email addie so that your name gets out there!
Also, a box or bucket for bottle returns, hey money can be donated by bottles too!
I am sooo excited, did pickled eggs for the raffle table, 2 jars of supppppper hot eggs and 4 jars of normal pickled eggs.
Take care and have you had any type of total for people MM? Just nosey!
Take care all!
