No idea but she is bringing me photos tomorrow when she picks up Monte. She made an incubator out of a tracing table! It's half incubator, half brooder! It sounds amazing. She got her start right her on BYC. Her first incubator was a cooler incubator and she has branched out from there. I told her she would be very popular at the swap

silkiechicken -
If anyone has extra roosters, culls, or stew hens that you don't want to see again... I may be interested in what you have, including banties. But do note, they are going to the big chicken coop in the sky.

Updated list:

Want: Watermelon goat milk soap! Extra birds to eat (I have no place to raise them in Oregon)

Have:
Plant Starts if all goes well:
Tomato: Roma, sweetie, gold nugget, early girl.

Herbs: Basil

Other: Morning glory-turns out my blue with yellow throat of last year were not as labeled! They really are darker blue with white throats.

Seeds: Nasturtium and Morning glory if you chose to direct sow

Vanilla Extract!!!

Real Madagascar beans from Madagascar and vodka! Not that ebay stuff from Paupa New Guinea and no sugar added to give off a fake sweetness. I've made them going by the federal minimum of about 14 ounces of beans per gallon of vodka, so there is about 3.5 beans per 4 ounce jar. Vanilla extract, not vanilla vodka. LOL $8 each or 2/$15. It is unfiltered and if you shake it up, you can get little vanilla specks in your baked goodies!

Goji (wolfberry) starts.

Bringing:

Zoomummzy: 2 vanilla, seeds, starts
CathyM: 1 vanilla
K7 Menagerie: tomato starts
CloverLeaf: 1 vanilla
Noncentzter: 2 vanilla, 2 goji
AyeUpChick: 2 vanilla, 2 goji starts

For my bringing list... let me know if I don't have you on there! I plan on getting there before 11, like 10:30ish providing I don't get lost... and will be in my red 2 door coupe with Washington plates.​

I'll be there probably around 10:15 ish, if not by 10 to reserve our space. I drive a dark blue Ford Focus. I can also PM my cell # to anyone that wants it for last minute directions, etc.

I'm super close i.e. 15-20 minutes so I was going to get there around 930-10 or is that me just being a little too excited?

Just saw that you're in Canby Clover so yes I think maybe I'm just overly excited!

This is my second year with chickens and I haven't been to a poultry swap yet. I started last year with hatchery chicks and a few batches of eggs from ebay sellers and Jen (ended up with 3 nice cochin hens, 2 blue and 1 black). I am currently raising some feed store (hatchery) Barred Rock pullets (I have 15) and RIR pullets (I have 7), all are available. The BR's are just under a month old now and the RIR's are a week younger.

I am very interested in obtaining some Birchen Marans (eggs, chicks or adults) for myself as well as Wheaten Marans (eggs or chicks) for a fellow chick lover that won't be able to make the swap.

I have 1 week old Splash Marans (8), Golden Cuckoo Marans (8), and Dark Brahma's (3). Being new to chickens and since they came as eggs from ebay'ers, I have no idea of the quality. I haven't decided for sure what I will ultimately keep.

Happy Swapping!
