A flock of thirty-some people showed up on Saturday morning for the Denver Urban Homesteading Chicken Swap that also included ducks, but, sadly, no goats.
The chickens were snatched up faster than they could run, but because of the complexities involved with legally raising and owning livestock in Denver County, not everyone was forthcoming with their last name, or even their face, for photographer Taryn Kapronica. See the full Denver Chicken Swap slide show. Below are a few highlights.
