THE SWAP THREAD "May"

[babyboy1_mom]

marie, I think that is a good idea. I understand that it is supposed to be secret, but people do not want to send eggs to someone that is not ready for eggs. Take me for instance, if I had not found out whom my partner was, then she may have went ahead and sent my eggs and they would have had to sit for almost 2 weeks, because my bator will not be empty until then. I think that the list should be done as follows.

EXAMPLE ONLY

SENDER RECEIVER
babyboy1_mom to alaskanhenhouse (waterfowl)
alaskanhenhouse to babyboy1_mom (LFP)
moms_panty to equine chick (LFM)
equine chicke to scgamecock (BP)


Something like this. You still do not have to say "what" you will be receiving, but you will be able to find out when you need to ship your eggs out.

Just a suggestion.

that is a great idea..so then what you hatch is the secret,,not so much where they are coming from.i totally get the full bator thing and who wants to wait around all month with incubator off waiting on eggs.this is true

I think that, that is a great idea. It would help tons with the confusion. I too am not ready for eggs, both my 'bators are full and so our my broodies, and I have no idea who my swap partner is, so they don't know when to send them, I would hate to have eggs go to waste.

My partner and I have our swap worked out.I have already sent my egg's to my other partner so I'm good.

I just noticed this thread and thought i better drop a note to tell you all that Sara lost her internet connection. I spoke to her today and that is how i know this. I will try to contact her tonight.

....Sara said that everyone should have the info that they need to send the eggs to their partner.
If anyone is unclear about who to send eggs to, you can send me a PM and i will contact her for you Wednesday.

My suggestion was not intended to change the whole dynamic of the swap. I just meant for this swap, just to get things straightened out. Just for those who either don't have someone to send eggs to yet or who don't know who is sending them eggs. That is all I mean. I was not trying to say that the way the swap is done should change, that is not my call. I am sure that this would have been cleared up way before now if siz had internet. It obviously could not be helped.

Chickn, I think I still have Nupine's address. I will look and PM it to you if so.

Hope you all get your swaps worked out soon.

marie, i think that since siz doesnt have internet someone needs to step up and straighten out,,, i am all for it,,,
i didnt mean anything by it,,sorry,,,i know i couldnt figure it out for the life of me,,
i do however like the idea presented,,that way it would be a 2 people work out instead of who knows how many to figure it out,,,looks like a big job,,

and how will you go about making a list,,,want everyone to state where their eggs are going to and when sent? maybe,,,i just dont know,,,lol good luck to whom ever takes it on,,
want me to start,,,, i have no eggs coming to me, however i sent eggs to

Sorry, my brain was not working when I typed that I guess. I thought I saved her address but I don't see it on my PM. Sorry. Not sure what you can do from there.

Chickn, I hope you guys get this worked out, but I was not offering to take over. I stepped on enough toes last swap and I don't intend to this time. I was just making a helpful suggestion. I think a list should be made here of all those who either don't have someone to send eggs to or who don't have someone sending eggs to them. Then it can be compiled and hopefully re-distributed? Like I said, that was just a suggestion, I have my partner and I have my eggs coming and my partners going out. So I am good. Hope you guys get this worked out though.

ok Marie.
Does Anyone have Nupine's address? I want to ship these tomorrow and she said she was fine with whenever I was able to ship, but she just didn't give me her address/phone.
