My husband, my son and I have decided that we will definately be going to this swap. It just sounds too good to miss. I thought I would ask if anyone has any mille fluer d'uccles or muscovy ducks. We are hoping to add these to our menagerie this spring. We are looking for babies or at least very young if possible. I can't wait to see all the great birds at the swap (and the nice people too )
I have a bunch of porcelain d'Uccles in the incubator developing nicely, and there should be some mille fleurs in there too. Glad you're gonna make it!!


I would be so thrilled to get some! Both types maybe? Woohoo! Chicken fever strikes again!

Just got my first 3 BCM chicks!

I'm so in love! I had first pick afterthe breeder so theyre all strong and healthy. I may be bringing one or two to the swap if for some reason they all wind up being Roos. We'll just have to see how it goes. They're so adorable. Will post pics later!
 
Is anyone bringing chicks? Are you running a heat light off your car? Do you think a generator would be too noisy? That might work good to run heat lights off of and everyone could probably share one and maybe kick in some money to the owner. I have one but it's on loan from a friend. I could probably be convinced to bring it if nobody else has one.

I am on a search for black silkies, I would love pullets but would also be happy with chicks or eggs. I might have some Bourbon Red turkey poults, I have 24 eggs in the bator now, so with luck I'll have some..

I can't believe it's almost time for the swap

Here's my latest list -

Haves -
LF buff cochin chicks, i should have about 10 or so.
Hopefully Bourbon Red turkey poults, they will be about 10 days old.
I can bring some LF buff cochin eggs if anyone is interested.
I should have some other chicks hatching soon, hopefully some cuties to bring to the swap.

I don't know if any of them will be old enough to be able to tell if they're girls or boys at the time of the swap. If you're interested in any of these, let me know. I'll probably only bring birds that have been reserved. I'll post pictures of what I have a couple weeks before the swap. All chicks will be vaccinated for Marek's.

Wants -

I would love some black silkie pullets but I'd also be happy with chicks or eggs. Please let me know if you have any.

OMG....I never realized this topic/thread was going on!! I will be there with bells on.....I hope to be bringing Black Copper Marans fertile eggs and/or chicks/pullets/cockerels. Also have Muscovy hens, proven producers/layers and one or two drakes. Have one stunning blue/lavender Muscovy young hen. Don't think my Narangansetts will be hatched by then

...but my Midget Whites may be if anyone is interested.

Oh, also one or two beautiful banty cochin/silky type roos.


I am looking for Blue Marans, Birchen Marans, Blue Birchen Marans
Quality Buckeye pullets preferably
Lavender Orps (hatching blue Orps right now)

I guess I better save up the pennies for all the wonderful goodies!! I have fallen in love with goat's milk soap, can't believe how wonderful it is! so will be looking for all the folks who make this amazing stuff!

Kristy,

My friend in town has my lavender girls and rooster...but we will be getting eggs later on and closer to the begining of summer. I won't be coming to the swap, but just keep me in mind because I might be selling hatching eggs or chicks soon this year.

Have fun at the swap! They are awesome!!!
