I'm trying to add everyone's name next to their BYC name so it's not so hard to find each other at the swap

Oh, and chicknfishn, if you'd like to come and buddy up with me

I'll probably be busy parts just working the swap and helping keep things organized, but I know how you feel - it's nice to have someone there to watch your booth so you can go off and explore. I'm not sure if my partner Rhonda can come yet, she might have a 4H show that weekend. But my fiance Keith will be there and he too can help us with the booths while he's not cooking (heehee), and I hope my mom and niece are coming to help with the booth and with the swap itself.

I'm considering it. Not sure exactly how much I would have to sell this time.

Would like to find someone over here that would like to have some company and money for gas for the trip over and back.

If anyone builds whizbang pluckers, I might be interested,

My son has promised to build me one, but with all the projects he has promised, it's going to take him awhile to get around to it.

I may have some heritage Narangansett turkey poults and possibly some more BC Marans pullets/cockerels.

 

[K7 Menagerie]

Update.....I'm bringing 2 nesting boxes, each is a 4 hole box.

 

[WizChick]

SOLD

Ok, I have 2 black male runners and 2 chocolate "runners" that are 6 weeks old. I already have a male runner so I don't need these and I'm disappointed with the chocolates (because they are khaki campbells). If anyone wants them I'm willing to bring them. Here's a picture of them all although it isn't the best of the blacks.

Hello all.

I am not sure whether work schedules will allow me attend (summer is a busy time for us) but I do have some birds I am looking to rehome. Thought I would share my have list in I do make it out. I will not plan to bring birds unless people are interested, since we are a 4 hour drive away. Anyway, here is my list of available birds.

Have:
2 Porcelain d'Uccle cockerels 5 weeks old right now....about 10 weeks at the swap (very nice looking!)
6 week old blue splash marans cockerel ...would be 11 weeks ate the swap. (super nice looking with feathered feet)
3 Buff Brahma bantam hens 11 months old now....1 year old at swap. Well handled and laying well.
Possibly a white silkie hen 11 months old now...1 year at the swap. She is pet quality, but super broody. Also well handled and tame.

That is what I am considering rehoming at the moment. I may decide to keep the hens, not sure yet.

Add to my wish list:

Wanted, exhibition quality Saddleback Pomeranians, either gender, either buff or gray, gosling or adult.

How do we put the address for this thread into our signature line. The fall swap is getting lots of coverage. This one could use a little boost and I'm posting is several sub-forums on Backyard Chickens.

I've asked on a different forum about posting the address and haven't heard back whether I can get permission or not. I think there are people in that group who would go to the Redmond swap, if only as buyers.
