Had to change the wording of the event, hopefully the "fest" police won't come after me.

cool! any details? is this also a swap/auction thing?

Sorry I just found this.

Might be there!

more details will be added as we know them.
this is from the prior augusta TSC thread from the old date that was getting buried but still have new info on this upcoming swap so I moved it here.

ok, for those attending, who is bringing what? please post so we can get an idea.
I'll start:
I am bringing
1 blue laced red wyandotte standard cockeral 11 weeks old
1 black cochin bantam cockeral with 2 black pullets also 11 weeks old
sell as a trio or 1 pair and single pullet.

I will hold them if I know you want them.
also bringing chicken saddles, assorted sizes bantam to standard.

looking to purchase one blue laced red hen/pullet standard wyandotte.

I lost yet another hen the other day to a hawk so they are no longer allowed to free range.

darn it, this is the same day as the humane society's big auction. it's a not to miss event!and that said, I can't miss it so I will only be able to go to this chicken fest for a few hours.

Ugh I wish I would have fixed the homemade incubator sooner...I could have hatched a few more of our cochin/amer. chicks(look at my avatar).

Regarding the poultry show this Sunday at the Windsor Fairgrounds, does anyone know if it's a rain/shine event? It's supposed to be pouring all day?

yes it is rain or shine because it is mostly indoors.
the poultry building and then a show ring they use for the auction.
