San Diego area breeders/hatcheries

Date sort Score sort
I'm also looking for chicks/hens (not roosters, not allowed by city) in San Diego.

I checked several places in San Diego:
1) http://www.ranchfeedandpet.com/
They sell day-old baby chicks, $5/ea 90% female (vaccinated?). Currently sold out until Jan/09/2014 (I think).
Feed is 50lbs for $23ish.

2) http://www.cartershayandgrain.com/contact.htm
They sell day-old baby chicks, $3.50-$4/ea (min 2) not vaccinated 90% female. Currently sold out until Jan/24/2014.
Feed is 50lbs for $19ish. Not bad.

3) Liberty Farms @El Cajon (619 540 5524)
They sell laying hens (not day-old chicks) for $37-40 depending on breed. Must call and make appointment.

Hello, new to this site and don't have my chickens yet but doing all the research before we purchase them. I want the easter egger hens so if yours don't work out just let me know. We should be ready for 2 hens in about 2 to 3 weeks. I think I want one easter egger and one rhode island red. Any idea if they will get along?
 
Welcome to the chicken world and BYC.
Yes, Easter Eggers and Rhode Island Reds will get along.
Have you checked out the San Diego "meet-up and chat thread"? We will have our next meeting this upcoming Sunday. Maybe you can join us. People will bring chicks, birds, food, stuff to sell and to barter. Will be fun to meet other San Diego poultry lovers.
 
Great! I'm happy to hear that they will get along. I will check out the meet-up and chat thread, thank you for the info. Yes, we are beginners at this so it would be good to meet others that have the experience! Thanks again for the quick response with all the info!
 
I see many chicks and fertile eggs advertised on Craig's list, also. I like the Araucanas as they tend to not be as noisy as Rhode Island Reds or barred Rocks. Happy to have found this site.
 
I live in El Cajon, we got our baby chicks from City Farmers in San Diego, I think they have ducklings, they have all kinds and ages of poultry. We also got chicks from East County Feed Store
