Info is emailed. http://www.meetup.com/Los-Angeles-Urban-Chicken-Enthusiasts/events/215720122/?a=co1.1_grp&rv=co1.1 is supposed to click to the site, OR to go MEETUP groups, then Los Angeles Urban Chicken Enthusiasts, and on their event page is an Orange County Chicken Enthusiasts page. Or, I...

Did you find the site? Did you wish to attend?

the small meetup event I am having is at my house, and is advertised on the Los Angeles Urban Chicken enthusiasts Meetup as an event in Orange County. If you have a problem finding it, I can email you. There is a woman wanting to organize a non-profit for educating about hens in OC, and a feed...

I never heard of clipping their wings, and but can fly as high as 8 feet. I have a wire roof overhead.

I'm in Orange County. Wondering if you are on this site anymore, it has been awhile. I am forming a Meetup group for OC.

http://www.meetup.com/Los-Angeles-Urban-Chicken-Enthusiasts/events/215720122/?a=co1.1_grp&rv=co1.1 should work to access the meetup site. Or just go on the web, type meetup, then search for the group. Let me know if you can't find it. You may have to signup but I don't remember if that is so. No...

Yes. I am organizing it with Roberta of the Los Angeles group. It's on the meet-up site. I can also email you my email.

Check out the Meet-up group (through Los Angeles Urban Chicken Enthusiasts) as they are planning a chicken meet-up in Orange County, possibly in Fountain Valley. The event is the Orange County Chicken Enthusiasts.

I am in Fountain Valley and helping to organize a Meet-up group in Orange County if you are interested, with an event to occur around February. Look under Orange County Chicken Enthusiasts working through the Los Angeles Urban Chicken Enthusiasts Meet-up group.

1 Updated August 2014 August 26, 2014 Tips on Raising Chickens in Orange County I wrote this hoping others would learn from MY mis- takes, because I love raising chickens. My initial image of cute hens running around like on a ranch only works if you aren’t worried about your plants being dug...

I had a necropsy done on one hen, so I know it was there. Thanks for the reply.

I'm in Fountain Valley.

Since this post was done in 2011, I presume you have solved the problem, but this is for others reading the posts, too. I read vaccinate day 1, but a booster shot after about a month old. Perhaps that is where the confusion lies. If Merek's is not in your area, you are lucky, but it if is, there...

Thanks for all the comments. My yard is so small, and the dander does fly, so I don't really have room to build another other than next to the old one, but I am waiting at least until they are four months old, or perhaps five months (if I can handle hens inside that long). I do enjoy watching...
