There are 4 bobs and 1 chukar It would have to be 2 bobs and the chukar or all of them as I woudnt want the little guys to get lonely without one of there own kind the chukar is use to it as he / she has been with the bobs and not other chukars.
As for how much You could pay anything you feel would be a fair price if you wanted but Im more intersted in them hopefully finding a good home and not being culled or what not , I know that people eat game birds as well but after getting these little ones up to sped and healthy Id like to see them go to a home as pets as it were.

Trust me. Eating them is far from my intention.

I used to raise bobs when I was younger and I love them. I also have a soft spot for the "special" birds that other would normally cull. I wouldn't be breeding them probably, since you have to have a permit to sell live bobs in oregon, but just give them a good home and spoil them rotten. i have a nice Aviary with a sand floor(reduces the chance of them contracting protazoa and other nasties from wet Oregon soil), and lots of plants for cover. I am putting in a running water feature this Summer, too.

Not sure how much I could pay you, but I can definitely give them a good home. I can also take all of them if there are only four bobs. thought there were more of them.

Well if you want them you can have them Ill give them to you =) the bobs are so cute and the chukar is ssweet he looks like he could just tear them apart but he is really gentle

I got a really handy pond filter for $1.00, it is a little kid's butterfly net and it works great to skim the pond surface!

I would like to get a couple of chicks for my broody. I missed the Summer swap....and am just about to do an order from mpc cause I can't find any around here.....I would be interested in POLISH (especially bantam frizzled or laced..... but I would consider lf and/or regular feathered) )and sultans, IF you have other cool interesting/unusual SEXED smallish breeds in not too far from the Eugene area I would be interested to hear from you...



Thanks,
Julie

Alright everyone. My second ride fell thru. I dont seem to have any luck with this aparently Im not ment to go so anyone that had wanted my birds, the one who wanted the bobs and the one that wanted the SFH ect will have to come pick up there birds befor or after the swap or anytime they want to actually just message me for my adress. Unless anyone is willing to take me to the show that is but IM not holding my breath.
Cookie the cochin mix think she is crossed with barred rock maybe and a hen.
Fudge, cochin mix, no idea wht he is crossed with but he has copper/brown feathers and an almost top not. I think he may be a boy but not sure.
Touchmenot the sweedish flower hen, who I was told would be a boy
2 MF Ds no idea on boy / girl status
Beepers the black with white speckles serama roo
BOY the Norwigan Jearhon roo ( He is a roosters rooster but although he dosnt like to be picked up he isnt agressive my 7 year old can handle all my birds with the exception of fudge with ease. Fudge takes a little quick thinking )

Zoomummzy- what flavor or what is in your Buckeye cheesecake???

I'm just curious, is there any interest in plants at the swap? Nursery landscape plants, small shrubs, groundcovers, small trees. If so what would be the most wanted? I'm asking because we are in the Nursery business and we could possibly bring things if there was much interest?
