Trio of basques you say? From black horse ranch? How old? I might be interested

Wow, this sounds like the sale to be at! Look at all those lovely breeds...

I'll have quite a few ages ranging from baby chicks to adults in the 3 main breeds of Buff Orpington, LF Cochin (blue & black) and white chanties. I posted a list on my website, along with a pic of the handsome chantecler rooster I'll be selling. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Oh, yeah, and I'll start now saving hatching eggs from the cochins to bring along - getting 2 or 3 a day.
If I have an over abundance in the fridge, maybe I could sell some non-fertile eggs for eating too! This sale will be really fun, and it comes at a perfect time for me. I had a great hatching season, so lots of extra chickees to sell.

How much are you wanting for the chantecler roo?

What do you sell your cochin eggs for, we might be interested in a dozen.

I will be bringing lots of empty crates for chicks and chickens.

Im sooooo weak!

Rober10169, the roo must go together with his 2 hens. The hens for some reason are quite timid and the 3 of them are inseperable. He is their protector, and they cuddle with him each night rather than roosting. Its pretty sweet. I'll be asking $60.00 for the trio.

$2.00 an egg - may or may not get a dozen by Saturday, but it should be close.

poplar girl - they are from Black Horse Ranch and I am wanting them to go to a home that will continue to preserve the breed - I really love them but I have to downsize a bit now the boys are into showing birds and I need more space and time to put towards their interests!
One hen is 2009 hatch with the rooster and the other hen is the only one I kept back from last years hatch.

NAME TAGS Is anyone bringing any???

Name tags would be a great idea, I missed meeting so many people at Ty's sale simply because I didnt know who they were.
All 5 kids Miry, never saw that before, you are going to be one loaded up lady.

Vivian thanks for the reminder about the name tags. I will try to remember to wear one.

You have too seen them all together Jayme!

I think it was the pool that got them all keen to go....hopefully we are going to fit everyone and all our stuff..

We can easily do nametags, just copy and paste your forum name and avatar pic onto word document and print it out!(Steve's good idea)


Some people I know by their name but lots I know by their avatars so it would be great to see both. I know some people hate nametags but I think they are so handy!

If you don't have the time to make one, I am going to have some at my table, stop on by and help yourself.
