I just talked to a friend of mines who lives in Sparta who does not have a computer and she wanted me to pass it on that she has several rabbits for sale. She shows at rabbit shows and has very good stock. She has the following rabbits for sale.

She has Mini Rex, Lion heads, and Holland lops. Prices start at $20.00

She has a cabinet incubator for $300.00

If you need her number or more details just pm me.

Thanks.

I sold them to him for $5 each well 4 Marans roos and a poor laying hen for $20. We also have a guy that is going to moving in next door to the farm and he is a hunter so he will be another outlet for roos.... I think he will help process and we will pay him with roos.

I have a ton on CL now and may have 2 sold maybe 3... but still a ton left. Hubby was panicking because I have 4 doz or so in the bator and just got 4 more doz to hatch today

"Where are we going to put them?" "We are going to have to process at the end of the month if they don't sell" I have roos out the wazoo, just ask Carol.....

I had two people that wanted my NH... but they are ready to eat.... not sure the others are big enough.... The Rocks and EE not so much.... I don't know what to tell you... we just got lucky. Hubby will not let me give my roos away.... we will eat them first!

But I think like Debbi said on the Marans thread.... people think there is something wrong with them if they are free.... IDK

My guess is they are Marans.... maybe just advertise them as dinner and not Marans.... Do you know how to process and just don't want to or do you not know how??? It really is easy. I am kinda excited to process for the first time. I have seen it on the threads and some in person so it is not as intimidating as it was. BUT I don't like the idea of butchering the ones I like....

but they got to go!

Oh yeah... in that 4 doz eggs I got today 2 doz are SLW

I was not expecting that and 15 BR and 9 DB Becky if you need a new unrelated roo.... I can hook you up in a few weeks

.... yeah I know that was not funny

yes it was

Donna is right - I saw them today - and I didn't even see the ones in the breeding pens!

But some of them sure were gorgeous boys!

I would love to help you out on those roos Here's my help

sorry it was all I could offer

I have a baby leghorn something roo if anyone is desperate he's fully feathered and has been out in this wonderful weather with no problem along with his "brother" a frazzle cochin roo who has 2 wing feathers and a chest feather...poor boy shivers so bad he about falls over but he's a tough guy!
I don't think my broodies are having much luck with this cold so I don't have any chick pictures so this is all I could come up with .These cuties are for sale when they are weaned..non showable markings-broken can be so miserable still would make great kids buns and they are spoiled already
