You're welcome! Actually, Bil did it but I think he's still busy with things so I'm going to copy what he had and update it. I am going to work on it tomorrow, Sunday at the latest so keep an eye out this weekend!

Just saw this...sorry I missed it! I would love a Buckeye but I can only have a pullet. PM me if you have any extra pullets this summer!

Oh, don't worry about that at all! I just wanted to let you know in case you wanted to bring something. Leaving is not always convenient as we found out last year. I know there will be plenty of stuff to munch on so no worries! Just bring yourself!! I seriously think you need to get the longest drive award!!! What do you think guys??? Can we do something great for rustyswoman????

I could donate a couple of chicks or chickens for the furthest distance award.

I'm guessing that there will be plenty to eat. I plan on stopping at KFC on my way thru Albany and getting a couple of buckets of extra crispy so all the nuggets can look at us sideways.

The guys at my feed store they would show up with a BBQ for any of the "leftovers". I told them to stay away from my car

Geebs has retired flocks of breakfast layers... They are the marans breed but the eggs do not always qualify... They are culls or project birds... Nice birds... I don't hatch the eggs.. I just eat them.. I have too many.. Very pretty blue...Alsy Barber line Wyandottes... two of em.. Nice eggies.
 
Here's the list the current Have/Want list as of today. (Thank you Bil for putting this together originally!) I will update it again throughout the week as needed so please post or send me PMs. Let me know if you want me to add your real name to list. I thought it might be nice if we had them for the swap. I will bring some name tags too since I'm really horrible with names! Also, please look through the list and make sure I have everything correct. I have went through every single post - twice - but I might have missed something (or someone) along the way.

I am putting the ad on Craigslist today and also, I have fliers made up if anyone is interested in spreading the word in your area. My feed store took some and I'm putting one up at the grocery store news board. I will be happy to email it to you, just send me a PM or email.

Side note: I know a few people at my feed store are looking for ducks since our feed store did not order them this year. I told them to stop by just in case, so if anyone has some you will probably have takers. Also, last Fall we had a few people show up who decided at the last minute to come and some just from our advertising so don't despair. I think everyone went home happy in October (until our spouses found out what we brought home

)



ZooMummzy (Laura)
Have – 3 standard Barnyard mix cockerels (Cochin/EE) – Red/Gold/Black, 5 and 6 months old
3 bantam Barnyard mix cockerels (Cochin/Japanese) – Black, 6 months old
2 OEGB cockerels – Spangled, 4 months old
5 OEGB cockerels – Barred, 4 months old
1 OEGB cockerel – Self Blue, 4 months old
1 Bantam Cochin – Black with gold and buff coloring – 4 months old
I may possibly have a couple 4 week old Bantam Cochins (Golden Laced and Silver Laced) – not sexed yet - and also two eight week old Barred Rocks (I think pullets) if someone would be interested in them. Because they are so young I don’t want to bring them unless they have a for sure home. Will decide by the weekend on these birds if someone shows interest.
**Note: all my birds are pets which means they are not signing up for freezer camp. I want to find homes for them but I won’t give them to someone for food purposes. I just can’t. I don't have SQ birds, just healthy, hand-raised birds so very tame and loving if that is important to you for your flock.

I'm also bringing extra fresh eggs (non-fertilized) for those who may want them. I'm thinking more of the people who show up out of curiosity than us since I'm sure we all have more eggs than we can eat
