WHAT YA GOT SWAP Chat Thread

Forgot to add I put handles on the finished boxes to so they are easy to carry. I bought 1,000 handles a while back from online for $20. I took pictures of them left to right is smallest to biggest that I use. The small box I use for chicks and just 1 chicken. The boxes can be found in the shipping isles at walmart. They are recycled boxes.

These are what I stick on the sides of the box:

Also I have had better rates of my chicks arriving alive in these boxes than the Chick shipping boxes that you buy. There are too many air holes in the chick shipping boxes and they get too cold. I tried to cover up as many holes as possible when shipping with the chick boxes but still had casulties. Just too cold in them boxes. The chick boxes are cheap enough but, not worth it if they die on the way to the destination because they get too cold.

Oooo, can't wait to see one of those boxes here!!

Hoping by Spring I'll have this incubating thing down, and be able to offer chicks too.

Keeping notes on how you guys send eggs and chicks so I can do it the 'proper' way.. Ooo chicks! Wooot!

Thanks and yes I would like to see the finished box when you are ready.

OR I may just have to take one of your swaps and see the box first hand.

Just because I am not hatching doesn't mean I can't get some chicks, right!!!!

That is very true. Ur bator is off. So chicks magically appear.

I could do side trades with chicks. If someone wants to swap chicks. I could send mine first and you could resend in my box.

I am looking for Serama chicks & Bantam Polish chicks. I can offer: EE (can leave out the NN's), Standard Sexlinks, Bantam Cochin, Standard Cochin Paint Silkies ( These don't all hatch out paint & will get whatever hatch out), or Corunix Quail. Or do a mix of any of the above.

Pm Me if interested. These are guaranteed instead of

and hope they hatch.
