Well, I'm kinda splitting my time right now between the peninsula and east bay :)

The weather in the SF Bay Area has been wonderful! My three hens are doing well. Maybe going to add a few more to our flock next Spring.

Beautiful flock! I hope you find a good home for them.

Crazy to think I started this thread almost exactly 17 years ago!! :th It's always fun to see local peeps on BYC! :)

Hey everybody! Just got back from Concord Feed! I gave them a stack of BYC 2017 Calendars, so if you go into one of their stores (PH today and probably Concord tomorrow) in the next few days, they might give you a free copy!! I love their support, they are great people! As before, they let...

Ya, we've been excited for Spring since the first day it rained, was cold, and got dark before 7:00 pm (we're not big fans of Fall / Winter) Good thing we live in such a temporate climate... my wife and I are sissys when it comes to cold!

I'm at our "chicken max" for our city, but those lavender Ameraucana's look really really tempting. I wonder if I need to swap out some of our less friendly / older girls?

I'm cross posting, but as the owner, I can do it! I'm going to be interviewed for a national TV show to talk about raising backyard chickens. They would like to have a third person (any location will be ok) that brings their chickens into the house from time to time. You don't have to be...

Hey everybody in NorCal! Please read the following and spread the word: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=386402

Yup, snow all over the hills of the East Bay! We see snow on Mt. Diablo pretty much every year, but rarely on the hills of Briones Regional Park Chickens are pretty good at keeping each other warm. How many chickens do you have? Do they all roost together? If your coop is draft free and...

Woah Lisa, those are some CRAZY pics!

DOH! Forgot to post this earlier in the week. Today is 20% off EVERYTHING in the store at Concord Feed. I stock up on layer pellets, scratch, and pine shavings. They also carry DE now. They do this about every 6 months, so put it on your recurring calendar! http://www.concordfeed.com/

Well we've had a break over the past hour, so we all went outside to play in the puddles... well, the rock hard clay soil turned into the most gooey mud you ever saw and we sunk down about a foot into the mud. Just enough for an adult to loose a shoe, but up to the knees of a 3 year old... she...

Anybody's house still above water? We were DUMPED on today! All my basement waterproofing efforts are being severely tested! We've had like 3 inches dumped on us... doesn't seem like a lot, but the ground became quickly saturated and now we've got HUGE lakes around our house. Well, maybe...

Hey neighbor! You ready for the heat wave on Tuesday / Wednesday?

Anybody around Sonoma? I'm doing a book signing this Saturday: http://www.readersbooks.com/NASApp/store/IndexJsp?s=storeevents&eventId=431039

Speaking of Concord / Pleasant Hill: "Concord Feed" (both locations) are having 20% sale on everything in the store! They do this twice a year. I'll be there for sure today!

I think we're talking much smaller scale (but I could be wrong). Maybe like 20 - 40 peeps? A public park or someone with a good size yard and a bunch of chairs would probably be more than enough.

Hey, local city ordinances say 5 hens and no roos! So, Greg, are you volunteering?
