I'm not sure... let me see what's around here...

Are you looking for anything in particular?

OOh I just had a good idea, lets bring sticky name tags so we can all write our Handle with the name under it!!!

Just an update on what I will be bringing on Saturday.

2 Pair Black Mottled D'Uccle -4 months old

1 Pet Quality Mille Fleur D'Uccle pullet- 4 months old

1 Pair White Bantam Cochins with black lacing in tail feathers- 4 months old

1 Trio Black Barred Bantam Cochins (2 hens (11 months & laying) & 1 Cockerel (5 months)

1 Pair Mille Fleur Bantam Cochins ( Pullet is off color & Cockerel has deformed foot (not genetic) - 4 months

I can also bring hatching eggs from my Lemon Blue Large Fowl Cochin Project if there is any interest. I should have about 10 eggs by Sat. They are $30. Here is a link to an expired auction showing pics of my breeders.

Cari, I think the name tag idea is great. Sure would help introduce all of us that are new.

PS Sweet Violet, I am bringing your new little Buff Cochin Pullet.

I'll pick up some name tags. I have to stop at Staples for something else anyhow.

Lynne, I can't wait to see your birds!!

Hi Everyone, YES! I am back but not to peddle chickens or any other creatures for that matter.

I think I will bring a fruit or vegetable platter. This will be okay in a cooler while I drive.

I LOVE Cari's idea of a name tag because it sounds like there will be ALOT more people this time and it will be much easier to keep track.

I will bring the nursery pots that have been promised and others that I will try to unload.

Here are my new offerings but I will not bring them unless I have some interest. I have a small car and I do not intend to lug the same stuff back.

I will have fig cuttings. Typical things to very unusual varieties. You will need to root them.

I will have a clearer idea after today but I will be unloading some fig plants (rooted and started), raspberry plants, blueberry plants, and I have Lots of strawberry plants too. Oh, I also have blackberry cuttings (Chester) and I have some wild blackberries but they have THORNS. I can come back w/ a complete list if we have plant people too. I can do cuttings of all of my fruit trees also if anyone is into grafting.

Almost forgot. I also have J chokes for planting.

As some of you may know, my chickens are alot like its owner, PICKY about food. I have Kruses scratch, Kruse's Organic starter/grower w/ 1 cup removed - they will NOT eat it. I would like it to go to good use. I will trade or ? for it. Also have 3/4 bag of Azure Standard Organic Chicken wheat, about 10lbs of Naturewise starter, also around 10-15lbs of Purina Start and Grow.

I am looking for: chicken & duck eating eggs, hatching eggs for Olive Eggers, BCM's, Barnevelder's. I will of course make monetary payments or trade.

Have a GREAT day!

Nancy

Nothing in particular. Processed rabbits, live hens, feeds, DE or ...

I am all thumbs when it comes to plants. My onions don't even grow that well. I have a grape vine and it looks like it is getting smaller and I have a banana plant for 2 years now and it is only about 18" tall!

All my plants except for a Loquat tree is dead or dormant.

How do you get your plants to grow in this cold weather? And I have the best kind of fertilizer from my chickens.
