i'm looking for hatching eggs or pullets really... i want to build up my egg layers... looking for light sussex, silver laced wyandottes, easter eggers, columbian wyandottes, light bramhas, and std or bantam cochins... really looking for mille fleur cochins...

would like to go, but not sure how my work schedule will be that week

I might not be able to attend, but at the moment I have two game fowl hens (a sweater and a roundhead) that I'm hoping to trade for two pet quality type silkies. They're about 6 months old. Anyone interested? Some friends of mine who have never kept chickens were interested in the gamefowl (which I was given unexpectedly and do not wish to keep), but I feel that they should go with the breeds they originally wanted (silkies). These game hens seem a bit shy and flighty for inexperienced folks.
