High Desert, California!! - Page 28

There is an Antelope Valley Beekeepers group that gets together every 2nd Wednesday of the month at a restaurant on Sierra HWY. I'm new to bees, and have only gone to a couple of meetings but they are very welcoming and helpful. Let me know if you'd like the contact info for the guy who runs it and I will PM you.

If you are just looking for someone to come take them away, the fellas do that, too, tho not always for free.

Hi desert chicken people. I'm looking for some fertilized eggs for my broody hen. Anyone have anything? I'd like meat or dual purpose but I'm good with just anything at all. If all else fails I can always get fertile eggs from Trader Joes, I guess.

Well Hello Ya'll...I'm in Acton...Nice to know so many people on here from High Desert...been conversing with everyone from back east!!

I called OR yesterday for some Black Australorp but he said they hadn't started laying yet. But to check back in late Feb, March.

Have you tried the butcher off the 14fwy and Ave G.  had 4 turkey's processed there and they came out beautiful.  the place is super clean he does everything except pigs.

661-945-9800 lancaster slaughter house.  for my turkeys he charged $15 per bird.

Oh thank you for this! I think I'd probably be able to process myself (I mean, I hope I could and not "chicken out"). However I have been looking for somewhere close anyway so this is great info. Thank you.
