Description:

Love chickens? No, not to eat...as pets! In this swap, chicken = hen. (Not rooster)

This swap is for all of you chicken-lovers out there. I know there's a bunch of you, I've read your profiles.

This swap is international.

This can be anything & everything that you want to say or send that is chicken-related. It is not limited to any specific medium, so feel free to make a chicken painting, a chicken fabric totebag, chicken ATCs or postcards, a poem to the chicken, a chicken shrine...to name just a few. The sky is the limit in your chicken love-fest.

Please note that it is not necessary to buy your partner anything for this swap. It may be that you have some fab chicken things already that you want to pass on to a fellow chicken lover. As long as it is something that you would like to receive it's ok to send.

(Only 1 restriction - no chicken recipes! I don't eat my pets & if you do I don't want to know about it. And yes, Tammy Fay is one of my girls.)

Again, I want to believe that every person who would sign up for this swap would feel so strongly about the topic that they wouldn't consider flaking. However, to make some of us feel more comfortable about joining, I must impose the following restrictions: you must have 4.7 minimum rating, unrated new members will be allowed with a completed profile,& you can't have any "no sends" on your profile. If you want to participate & don't match the requirements, email me & we'll discuss it.

FYI, I just added that it's international in the swap info. Not that it would stop any true FOC (Friend of Chickens) from participating!

aw i'd love to join but can't, but you can see some of my baby's on my flickr, just click my name, i actually took more pic's this morning will add them tonight

SummerLion 05/31/2007 #

yay! chickens chickens chickens! (but why the roo bias?)

Cherries 05/31/2007 #

I have nothing against roosters as long as they aren't near my hens. Don't want/need fertile eggs as I want to control my numbers - I think 16 is plenty!

I said chicken = hen for this swap because there are so many rooster things out there already. This is for the ♥ladies♥!

Craftlover10101 05/31/2007 #

K I put the pic's up if you want to see my babies. Wish I could join this swap but have too much going on.

cherrythepig: =) I always have too many roos, so for the ladies is good for me. Just wondered. (I wanted six chickens: preferably red ones, five hens and a roo. What I ended up with was yet another obsession; at one time had as many as 50 chickens. Am now down to about a dozen.)

Heather, I'm gonna go look at your babes. I should post some of mine sometime. It's easier for me to get the geese, tho, because they'll be still longer.

This shirt just came out today on Threadless, and I got a kick out of it. I thought you fellow chicken fans might enjoy it too.

Partners have been assigned. Happy swapping y'all. (Yes I really do say y'all.)

Please don't forget to let your partners know when you send & rate them when you get your swap.

chickpea! That is really cute!

I have a question for cherry, though -- say you had some chicken-themed item for this swap and it included an image of a rooster WITH a hen -- would that exclude it from the swap criteria?

Cherries 06/10/2007 #

I just know that I personally don't want anything else with a Roo on it, even with a hen. But that's me. I can't speak for others. Since I'm not your partner it's a moot point.

Just ask your partner. If it's ok with them, then go ahead. I would not consider it excluded unless your partner absolutely didn't want it...I want everyone to win here.
