OHio ~ Come on Buckeyes, let me know your out there!

[lisaequine1]

If you decide to sell I would be interested in a trio. They are too pretty. Please let me know if you do decide to.

Will do

It sounds like there are going to be a lot of roos at the meet!! Will there be a lot of interest in roos?  I have a pair of Egyptian Fayoumis roos, 1 blue andalusian splash roo, and probably 3-5 Buckeye roos. They Egyptian and andalusian are hatcherie stock, the buckeye bought from a buckeye breeder here on byc. My friend has several roos she would like to rehome.  I don't know what kind she has.  I know they have silkies, but not sure of other breeds. I would be interested in wyandotts, welsummers, and I want more, more, French or copper marans! Or any other different breeds than what I already have.! I don't need any more roos, so I would be interested in pullets.
I'm really getting excited about the meet!  I can't wait to see what everyone has! 

loveourbirds, What all do you have? And are the dark brown leghorns you have roos or hens? I mentioned it to my dh, and he seemed interested in them.

If I get to come ill have some green sex link pullets, maybe some older turken mix pullets. I may have some other pullets too but haven't decided what to keep and what needs to go so I can start breeding. I love them all so it's hard. the only ones I don't have a problem with are the ones going to freezer camp because they are too flighty and are aggressive toward the hens or my kids.

What are green sex link? And I understand about getting rid of some. It can be hard. Thankfully I haven't had any problems with aggression in my flocks. But I have sent some of my roos to freezer camp. I just didn't know what else to do with them. I have given a few of them away to some friends, but most go to camp.

the dark brown leghorns are a rooster and hen pair. they came from Eagle's Nest hatchery, but are listed by them as show quality. i would like to see more white in the earlobes, their feathers are a little rough right now, but they look good when properly feathered. they should be coming out of molt soon.

what i plan on bringing to the swap so far: a pair of blue slate turkeys, if im close to half and half. if anyone wants just a tom let me know and ill bring an extra. i have a group of pullets i bought as california gray leghorns, that arent what they were supposed to be; i will bring them but i dont know for sure what they are. i have a trio of millie fleure d'uccles i might bring, its the trio i bred this year. i have some chicks growing up that i need to id, but ill probably bring some cochins and a very few silkies. maybe some old english bantams if anyone is interested i have a few extra lavender and b.b. red especially.

now the list i dread, what i have:
bantams:
old english game bantams in:brassy back, brassy blue, lemon blue, b.b. red, fawn red, fawn silver duckwing, silver duckwing, creole, spangled, black, white, blue, and self blue/lavender.
cochins in: buff, black, lemon cuckoo, blue splash, blue mottled.
silkies in: black/blue split, white, and buff.
black rosecombs, white leghorn, silver pencilled rock, millie fleur d'uccle

large fowl:
white rock, silver laced wyandotte, turkens, black copper french marans (sq), dark cornish, black australorp, buff orpington, rhode island reds (sq), dominique, white leghorn, silver pheonix, basque.

if anyone wants pharaoh quail chicks, let me know now. i can bring eggs too - i dont have many.

if they start laying good ill bring some other breeds in eggs: white crested blue polish, rhodebars, lemon cuckoo orps, partridge rocks, light quail and procelean d'anver, light cornish (doubtful but maybe)

i know i missed some breeds, im just trying to think of whats producing.

 

[cluckitall]

Well,mostly I'm thinking of hatching chicks to bring down, if anyone's interested. Mostly basques and rhodebars, maybe seramas -- would anyone want some seramas? I think they're delightful

OOH! OOH! I would love 3-4 of your marans!!! A couple of wyandottes, Rhodebars! I'm not sure what lemon cuckoo orps look like, but they sound very interesting. I really want pullets though, if that is possible. Although, I might make an exception on the marans. 1 roo so I can hatch some. Oh! I'm starting to think this may not be a good idea, coming to the meet!!!

I'm seriously sitting here and my heart is pounding!!

I'm so excited!

cluckitall, I'm not sure what basques are. Do you have pics. I might be interested.

 

[minihorse927]

They are about 4 1/2 months old I wish I could get all four together but they think I am in there to catch them so they run. This is all four of them.. (at least I think)

#1 hen #2 I'm leaning towards roo, but could go either way #3 roo #4 hen

 

[minihorse927]

Oh and you'll be lucky if they crow or give you an egg before 8 months, if not longer.
