Moose Jaw - Market Style Poultry and Exotics Sale - August 3rd, 2013

Hi all;

Sorry, I have rescheduled due to a few requests!  August long weekend seems to work better for everyone; hopefully I will be able to get bookings now!

Lou and I are holding the Semi-Annual Market Style Poultry and Exotics Sale at her sanctuary, Free To Be Me in Moose Jaw August long weekend.

When:
Saturday, August 3rd, 2013 from 10:30am - 4pm

Where:
Free To Be Me Sanctuary, Moose Jaw SK.

How much:
$20 a booth.  Booths are located in the quonset, with overflow outside.  Tables come on a first come first serve basis and power can be ran on a first come first serve basis as well within the quonset.

All proceeds will go to advertising for the event on digital billboards (as well as flyers) and remaining funds will be donated in its entirety to the Sanctuary.

Directions included on flyer.  Want to help distribute a flyer?  I can send you a pdf to print off, just tell me which version of the flyer you're interested in (See below).

There are 2 booked tables so far, including Polish chickens, barnyard layers and White Chanteclers!

Another table booked! Could see beautiful, different critters with this booking. Maybe guines, Golden Pheasants, rabbits or chickens!

I am hoping to come Sweetened but still have to wait till closer to book a table.
Will you accept walk ins? I know they are not the best way to do a sale but sometimes it takes till the last minute to know what I am doing. LOL

Jayme if you want to come at the last minute that would be fine. Walk ins are welcome! lou

Thanks Lou, I am trying my hardest to convince Hubby it is a good idea to go to Moose Jaw/Regina two weekends in a row, but still working on him... Also have to see what I have to sell whether it is worth the trip. I am hoping to give you guys notice for sure.

YOu heard the lady! Walk-ins are fine. All things depending, you can use me as a delivery excuse

I sure hope to see you there, it was wonderful last year. Seems to be a lot of interest, I'll have to replace some of the signage in a couple places by the end of the week!

I'm even going to post some flyers in Cypress Hills when I'm down there this coming weekend.

You should stop and say hi. We have a crazy weekend with 4-H but you could still stop by the rodeo grounds and say hi!

Thanks Miss Hidden, maybe we'll be able to stop in, but I don't know. We're going to Moose's cousin's wedding and pulling an overnighter. We'll see, for sure though! Good luck at 4H

Well safe travels.

Thanks, I've never been there so I look forward to it.

There is a great Bed and Breakfast place in Cypress Hills Jim Owns it
He was at the First sale of Lou's he is a great guy and has good rates also.

We have another table booked. This vendor is bringing coturnix and tuxedo button quail!

He is LOOKING TO BUY a call duck pair -- colour doesn't matter. Consider this when packing up your goods to bring for the sale!

We just had 4 little call ducklings hatch this weekend, maybe if I can slip away I can bring some, but not sure if I can sex them by then...but can try.

I sure hope you're able to make it! *Fingers crossed* I think he'd probably buy them all just to end up (hopefully) with a pair, to be honest.

I'm still trying to convince my family a poultry sale would be a great place to celebrate turning six. Already have the soon to be 6 year old on board, woo!

I don't think acquiring MORE chickens is going to help my cause any.  

DH asked me the dreaded question last night, "just how many birds do you have now?!" Thankfully there was no need to fib or fudge numbers, because I really don't know the answer myself!

Just say what I do: "It goes up during breeding seas, but it'll go back down"

Yep, ebbs and flows. I just happen to be at a high point right now...and unfortunately, the birds are much too hard to count.  hehehe

We're at at least 100 right now. Numbers will drop again come the sale.

we might be there but wont know until day of as it always depends on Darwin as I dont drive and he works certain days
He keeps telling Lou we will be there so we will see

! Will you be selling?
