    Hillsboro, Oregon - update on legalization

    If you can hold out for the salmon Fav girl, when I start hatching this fall I'll have some...and they'll be REALLY nice... Good grief. Like I need help with fuzzy math. I have no sources for them other than an online purchase so this might be a plan. I'm planning on getting the other chicks...

    Which coop is "best"?

Nice store!! I'm on their mailing list. I liked their selection of chicks, foods, and supplies. I wish...

    Which coop is "best"?

    Hi everyone! First post cause I will be jumping into the chicken hobby - soon, I hope. I grew up on a small farm and we had chickens but that has been (nevermind - MANY, many) years ago. I've been reading all of your super helpful posts for a month or more and have learned a lot. Since hubby...
