I honestly thought I took more photos! I think I was in shock!

Here's one of the crowd... but the Tudy shot didn't work out well... my friend didn't understand the concept... and there was no way we could gather everyone together... foo

We're home after the long day and enjoyed meeting the new people, and still missed meeting a lot of you, but there's always the next one!

Wait! The Corvallis Swap is next spring? I thought it was this year in September?

What if our favorite lap hen is a rooster or a turkey or lamb?

I had these twin ram lambs whose momma had mastitis (they sold her to me as breeding stock). Since they were bottle babies, I took them to work with me so I could feed them every 4 hours. I would have these 2 ram lambs following me everywhere. I would walk them right down the sidewalk on a leash in town and they were very popular!

Now they live at my friend's farm and walk on leashes like dogs. They see those leashes and present their necks so you can clip to their collars. They love to be walked! You don't even have to take them anywhere, you can walk them around the yard or pasture.

Those 2 boys are the best natured rams I ever saw! Neither one of themever ever even thinks about agressive acts with people. They bash heads together, of course, but not with people. They act like dogs with people.

My girls are very pregnant and I can't wait to meet the new characters who will be born! Just like chicks hatching!

Had a blast today and so enjoyed visiting. Super excited about my hatching eggs, new girls, etc etc. Thank you all for the hard work. I am looking forward to the next one. And thanks zoo for the yummy mango cheesecake - DH LOVES it so I have bribery for the next swap.

all are settled in. Good night and happy hatching.
