WHAT YA GOT SWAP Chat Thread

[innerwolfbatikranch]

I was wondering if there is anyone on this thread who has lavender ameraucana eggs and might be interested in doing a side swap from my etsy shop?

Can't hurt to ask, right!?!

Ok, I am a bad swapper...well not really but, anyway.

I swapped some eggs at the end of May, then one girl went broody. Then it was sooooooo hot, and then haven't heard from her, and sent another pm today asking if she is still hatching and checked to see her last post was the beginning of Sept. I have been sending pms to let her know I haven't forgotten about her. These Bantam Orps are not the best layers.

So if I don't hear from her what would you do? I am done hatching until Spring so not an option.

OMG! I want to see photos of Tawny's babies! I have hatched but can't find them in all my brooders now. I guess I will know them in a few weeks. I will separate out chicks as they mature.

Tawny, my most handsome Sizzle roo project boy.

And his lovely ladies......

Taz.... who is it? some people have "disappeared". OR send PM to corancer.

WKA.... The one chick is a silver color right now.

Off to pick my kids up early from school. I WILL get pics when I get home.

P.S. Tawny is GORGEOUS!!!!!

I would just wait until you hear from her. Since she hasn't been on the forum, it is hard to say what may be going on in her life right now. You have no way of knowing if the address you have is still good. If she is still at the same address but currently not hatching a surprise bunch of eggs in the mail would not be a good thing. If your birds are not laying when she gets back to you then you go back to the wait until they lay again.

I have eggs that I am waiting on from a couple of people because their birds stopped laying and I owe a batch of Golden Laced Orpington when they start laying again.

It makes me anxious owing eggs.

Why do I remember reading something about her...... I "think" and don't hold me to this but I think her child ran away and there was something on here asking for prayer for a safe return. Just sounds familiar. Either way I agree with corancer...wait for contact.

No worries now. Thanks, both of you. I will give her a few days and then decide what to do with the lovely eggs.
