🙏🏻Once again, thank you to the amazing Sam & Norths Knights Junior Rugby League for your hospitality for holding our meet. We can’t do it without your help. And Cookie's Coffee Brew 2 U that kept us fuelled with caffeine.☕️

🙏🏻Thank you to each seller who made the effort (some with super early starts!) to come along and support the event. Everyone did the right thing and were patient with us at the gate and parking, which absolutely does not go unappreciated! 😉
Thank you to most buyers who did the right thing with cages/boxes. Unfortunately there were a few who believed they were above the rules. 📦 These people won’t be welcomed back.

🚨📆 We had a lot of enquiries re the next event date, and we are looking at early Feb 2024, with a possible venue change to account for the tropical weather Rocky experiences and some additional childrens entertainment added into the event.
Keep an eye out for the announcement in the next couple of weeks! 🎤

🐥In the meantime- Enjoy your new additions to the family! 🐥

🐓⚠️ 2 weeks ‘til Meet Day! ⚠️🐓

👆If you haven’t got your seller entry back, please do-so before Thursday 9th Nov. 🙏🏻

🏷️ If you’re interested in coming along to sell, please either flick us an email to [email protected] or PM the page and we’ll forward through all of the info.

🎤 Event details can be found here: CQ Poultry Meet and seller listings can be found on the pinned post on this page.

It’s quiet sad we have to post this, however…
Unfortunately we’ve been made aware of untrue rumours circulating the local area regarding the next CQ Poultry meet not going ahead.

We can confirm the event IS going ahead as scheduled and there is absolutely NO TRUTH in this gossip and Chinese-whispers.

We urge anyone who hears these stories to set the record straight, and if anyone is ever in any doubt regarding any facts surrounding the event, to contact us directly instead of repeating hear-say without facts to back up the claims. It’s not hard to message/email/phone us to seek clarity prior to spreading gossip.

We have been tied up with school holidays and running businesses, however this week we will list current seller lots in a pinned post to the page.

Onwards and upwards we go! 🐥🐓

Anyone missing little character from Sunday? If so, PM us and we’ll get it back to you.

🤯 Wow! What a morning!

The first CQ Poultry Meet certainly exceeded our expectations. Special thanks must go to all of the sellers, especially those who travelled long distances to support the event. We can’t do it without you!

🙏🏻Thanks, as always, to Sam at Norths Knights Junior Rugby League. We also can’t run the meet without a venue!

Thank you also to everyone who was patient with us at the gate. Both to sellers coming in for our first set up, and buyers who were keen to come in early to grab some chickens. We weren’t expecting so many people so early in the morning, or for our first event!

🙇🏻‍♀️Unfortunately though, there were a few buyers doing the wrong thing. I’m going to be like a broken record regarding BYO boxes/cages for future events. We ensured this was clear from the get-go, and boxes were available for a gold coin donation to the Rugby club- you just had to ask. BUT there were buyers STILL without this key part of the process. We don’t want the meet shut down. So if you’d like these events to keep running- PLEASE, for the love of poultry, do the right thing transporting your stock!

🥁Onto the best part though….This is also a date-claimer post!
The next meet will be Sunday 12th November. More specific details will follow on our page once finalised.

🧐We’ve learnt so much today, and know where we can improve things to make the next event even more of a success for all.
If you know of any sellers, breeders or interested suppliers, please let them know about the meet. We understand some buyers were disappointed and missed out on purchases, so we’d love to get more sellers onboard, now that breeding season is really ramping up.

🥰Thank you again for your support. I’m so glad to know there’s so many more crazy chicken people out there, just like me. 🐥

24/08/2023

With thanks to both 990 4RO AM and ABC Capricornia for taking the time to have us on your breaky segments over the last few days. Greatly appreciated!

23/08/2023

Hi All, thanks for the interest!🥰
We need as many sellers as possible to make this a success and to allow us to hold future meets for the area.
