Oregon Fall Poultry Swap - October 22 - Corvallis @ the Fairgrounds!!!

My updated list:

Bringing
-2 pairs black or black / lavender split bantam Ameraucanas (your choice), near POL, some may be laying by swap time.
-1 pair breeder quality bantam salmon Faverolles
-1 partridge Chantecler pullet, near POL
-2 pairs bantam wheaten Cubalayas, about 3 months old
-1 bantam wheaten Cubalaya cockerel (same shipment as above pairs)

Most of these birds will be for sale at the Stevenson show the week before the swap, so if you want something let me know ASAP, or they might be gone....

A friend of mine has 2 hens available right now that are just barely a year old, we think they are light brown leghorn / Welsummer crosses, they look like leghorns, but lay a light brown egg, and were purchased from the "welsummer" bin at Wilco last spring.

-I will also have hatching eggs available from the following:
-Large fowl black / blue Ameraucanas
-Large fowl salmon Faverolles
-bantam salmon / blue salmon Faverolles
-bantam Ameraucanas, this will be a mixed bag of colors. In this pen right now there are 1 lavender hen, 3 black/lav split pullets, 3 blue pullets, 2 black cockerels, and 1 splash cockerel. SO, chicks will be b/b/s, but some of them could be -carrying lavender.
-Seramas - I have 2 breeding pens set up, one is a tri color male with a mottled female, the other is a tri color pair with a black tailed buff frizzled female

Most of these eggs are also available now if anyone is interested in hatching some before the swap. BUT I am NOT reserving hatching eggs for the swap itself, the eggs will be first come, first served only.

Wanting
-Pesto from AyeUp
-Feta goat cheese from OregonJen
-bantam Faverolle sized chicken diaper (no liner) from Celiandy
-chocolate chip and pumpkin marble cheesecakes from Zoo
- pair or trio of BQ or SQ blue bantam Sumatras (would also take a blue roo with black hens/pullets)
-2-3 b/b/s Orps, prefer English, but super large and fluffy American Orps are ok too (for the above mentioned friend with the leghorn crosses)

I need some advice from anyone with parrots. This is a great big parrot cage, very heavy weight. If I ask $40 for it, would that be too much? These things are expensive, aren't they?

I intended to convert it to a rabbit cage, but it seems a shame because it is a nice bird cage. If I can sell it for $40, that's enough to buy wire to make myself a real rabbit cage.

That's a great price for a parrot cage! It would also be a good quarantine or broody cage - all it would take is some hardware cloth around the bottom 6" or so...

Hey, Zoo -
We need an address for the Fairgrounds! I didn't realize it, but telling a friend about it just now, I couldn't find an address on the site or the flyer... am I missing something? Directions or address for those coming out of town?

Thanks, everyone, for the feedback. I'm getting really excited, and worried that I won't get everything done. Especially now that, semi-last minute, I decided to try and sell all my miniatures at the annual Portland dollhouse show - and that is Oct 1st & 2nd! So I'm frantically unboxing and dusting off and sorting all the miniatures that I've stored in my garage for 4 years, since there was no room in this new house for them! Whew!

So that is a big project, and once I'm back from that, I plan to jump into all the last-minute details for our swap!

The address and map are on the webpage under both the "Fall Events" tab, and the "Getting Here" tab.
Thanks for mentioning that Cathy - I'm sure others needed to find that info too! In case anyone doesn't feel like going to the website (as if!!), here is the addy for ya: 110 SW 53rd St, Corvallis Oregon 97333

Laura, I do plan on keeping the webpage updated with the current list of wants/haves as soon (or as close to it) as I see your updates here.
