HAVE -
A few changes - Fran (Serama) is now definitely a Frank so is available and Ivy (Serama) is available again (iffy, can't guarantee yet, but fairly certain a girl); Truman is a Tuesday so one less cockerel
- still can't guarantee 100%, but looking more girlish than boyish. I will do one more photo update at the end of next week.
An additional note on Xander my Serama cockerel: he has started developing frizzled feathers. I've never experienced this in a bird this late in development, but both him and Brutus now have frizzled cape feathers! I guess the recessive frizzle gene is in there somewhere. They also both have the softest crows I've heard. I was always told Serama's crows are 1/4 that of bantam roosters and so far that is very true. I have 3 of them crowing in the house right now and 3 bantams. You can definitely hear the difference!
Next week - Thursday or Friday (14th/15th) - will be the last time to pre-order a cheesecake at the $15 price. So if you want to order a cheesecake, now is the time to place your order
since I will only be baking them this week and next. Any late comers to the swap thread or "I absolutely have to have that cheesecake" requests, lol I will do my best to accommodate
The additional cheesecakes I'm bringing to sell at the swap will range from $15 to $25 each since quite a few of them are more extensive in nature time wise and ingredient wise. None of them are on the available list for pre-order so you will be seeing all new varieties! I will have free samples of all of them. Just to give you a little teaser, I will have Lavender and Honey, Neapolitan, Hummingbird, Vanilla Bean and Citrus Bliss plus about 7-8 more to choose from

As of now, the available list includes:
4 Serama cockerels - Shiloh, Gilligan, Frank (dark wheaten) and Xander (black/white/gold mottled with Frizzled cape feathers)
1 Serama pullet - Ivy (black/white)
2 Cochin/Silkie cockerels - Linus (black w/white) and Angus (splash)
1 Cochin/Silkie/Dark Brahma cockerel - Jacques (dark blue/black)
Trio OEGB/Japanese bantam - Dante (barred w/gold cape), Rita (black w/gold penciling) and Muriel (black)
2 bantam EE cockerels - Lexus and Liam (splash)
2 bantam pullets (unknown breed) - Jillian (blue w/black legs); Tuesday (black)
2 bantam Silkie/Cochin X chicks - Bonnie and Blaire - cannot guarantee sexes (Welsummer looking wings so far with feathered feet - 4 toes, white skin) *Note: since these two are so young (less than a month old at swap time), I will probably only bring them and separate them from their broody Mom if someone is definitely interested in having them. If not, I won't drag them away for the day.
****Baked Cheesecakes $15 each; will come frozen and wrapped. Cut off date for ordering will be 2 weeks prior to the swap. Let me know what flavor/crust you'd like.
