I am leaning south too just simply because it seems like the right thing to do for all our southern friends

Yes, please if you could check that out I'd appreciate it. I haven't had time to make any calls or look into anything yet. My daughter graduated high school and I've been busy with end of the year stuff for the others. Probably going to be July before I get around to anything since my other daughter is heading to Costa Rica in two weeks for a teen volunteer program. Just too much happening in life at the moment.

I like mutt chicks to be honest with you so I say go for it!

Hey everyone, I'm sorry to do this to you but I need someone else to step up and take over organizing this event from now on. I have some personal issues going on (loss of my father-in law being one) and I really cannot dedicate the time I thought I could. I would like to still be involved so will follow the thread. I'm sorry, I just need to pull back from a lot of things right now and refocus my attention on my family.

Oh, I'm so sorry!! I'd be happy to help in any way that I can...I will keep a have/want list compiled, though I'd still ask for anyone with location ideas to help with logistics...especially if we want something in the south, since I'm not familiar with that area...

Thank you so much for everything you've done already!! I hope things start looking up for your family!

Do we have any idea what size of a gathering we're talking about, here? (How big were previous gatherings?)

The one in April was what...50 people...give or take?? And not everyone is there at the same time either...

For those of us new to swaps? What is it?

It's where you can swap/trade chickens or other types of poultry. A want/have list will be compiled on this thread so you simply post here what you would like and what you intend to bring. Cash purchases are totally okay as well. We all meet up and let the fun begin!

I still need to call the D.County fair grounds. I'll see if I can get that done now because every time I pick up a hammer to go outside, it starts dumping buckets of rain all over me...Gotta love Oregon in the Spring!

FeatheredObsessions~ Looking at your sig, you should totally come. I already see things I would like....

Do you know before hand what to bring or do you bring it all and take home whatever doesn't go to a new home? Do you know before hand what you will be bringing home with you too? Well at least part of what you will be bringing home that is lol
