I have some polish chicks, a rhode island red pullet( abt 6 wks old now), arcauna fertile hatching eggs, two bantam mille fleur cochin roos and 1 hen, and a gorgeous frizzle SQ bantam cochin partridge roo (1 yr old).
I also have a few araucana/americauna mix hens(2 yrs) that lay great eggs, and a 9month old pullet from the same parents but we need room for the next generation.

anyone interested in any of these?

Thanks for the offer! I'm actually looking for slightly younger though as meat bits for stir fry. Should have specified I was seeking standards under 5 months or so, or the stereotypical meat type ideally.

Lensters(Len): I'll probably only really need one frier.

Oh.. and is it alive? Either way is fine with me, just need to know what carrier I should bring. Thanks!

If you go to the first page of this thread you will see the time, date and place. As far as bringing chickens, just make sure they are caged and that you quarantine any that you purchase once you get home. There is a sticky or two regarding this in this section. Buying....cash always works and/or swapping. A lot of the members have been PM'g each other making arrangements but I know from the Fall Swap that a lot of trading and purchases happened on the spot at the swap If you know what you'll be bringing, please make a post or send me a PM as soon as possible as I am updating the list throughout this week with a final one on Friday sometime.

I think I covered it all but if not, feel free to ask!

Oh, and welcome to the group!!!
