I've got some NN... one of them is half banty but the others will be full sized.

Of the three NN I got from you two did end up being roos. If they had been pullets I would keep them. But the one NN pullet can stay. Her looks are growing on me.

They along with the rest of the group I picked up are too friendly. They love to get under foot when I go to feed and have no issues with being picked up. I keep stepping on little chicken feet every time I walk out into the yard.

2/3 of my NNs ended up being roos too. Momma hatched 2 NN the week after and both those were girls, thankfully. I'm glad you've finally decided NNs aren't too bad looking! I'm also glad one gets to stay. I think we're going to eat the other 2 males.
I also think they're hilarious when the rest of my big girls come running these little naked necks come running right behind them! They always think I'm bringing food. Ok, I usually am.

Does anyone have any small animal cages that they might be able to bring to either the augusta or lewiston swap that they want to sell? I'm looking for another cage for my rats but it's always a problem of the ones that are for sale are too far away. I think what I want is one of those big rabbit cages that is more long than tall with a plastic base but I'd look at other cages if anyone has them.

I have a bunch of wire cages 2x2x3'long some have metal pans but I think most of the pans are now gone. they would not be suitable for a rat but i use them for chicks. wire spacing is 1/2" x 1" and most have 2 front doors. there is a flap at the bottom where the pan slides in. $25 each these i know a rat could get out where the pan slides in. these are made by stones custom cages. since I no longer have my truck available, they would have to be picked up here.

I'll bring some canary cages to the augusta swap as well (no canaries just cages)

I love getting cages from Bass Equipment.

Their website is: http://www.bassequipment.com/default.aspx

They are very well made, indestructible and they are shipped UPS Ground, which means they show up at my door!

Anybody know of any swaps this weekend? I am planning on going to the Augusta TSC swap next weekend, but tomorrow is wide open for me and I would love to shop for new flock members. :-D

Anyone want to split a Midget White turkey poult order with me? I had a pair but a bobcat took the hen s few weeks ago. And the eggs I had in the incubator were a bust. Only two out of sixteen hatched andthey didn't make it. I am bound and determined to have MWs but don't want the ten to fifteen that the hatcheries require. I only want five to six.

I've got a ton of roos that need a good home and some pullets too...

I'll even put a swap sign out by my mailbox at the end of my driveway to make it feel real to you.
