I am in Alexandria and want to get a couple of silkie.  I don't even have a coop yet.  Just doing some research on raising chickens.  I have two kids, a 6 and an 8 year old.  I am looking for any suggestions as to where to get them or if I should hatch them, except I don't want a rooster.

Gee, better late than never!! LOL  Hi everybody.  Been here since Feb. and just now checking this thread!  roll  Can't wait for Chickenstock!!  I hope all y'all are coming.  If anybody has a naked neck hen to bring, I really really am trying to find one.

Also, I would like to contact Andrew (akahn01) as he's just a stone's throw from me in Fairfax.  How can I contact him?  His email addy isn't listed.  Thanks!

Hi Ellen:  Hey, don't forget me.  I live in Gainesville, a few miles west of ya.  Andrew lives in Fairfax but I'm not sure if he still frequents the site.

How deep are you into the chicken hobby?  I'm a member of ABA and SPPA, but don't have the room to raise chickens, and my HOA would frown on that tongue .  But that didn't stop me from incubating 19 peeps, which are in a brooder in my garage as I type.

Did you go to the Va Poultry Breeders Show on May 5th?  Great place to just talk chicken.

E-mail me!  And for MarkR, I'd love to talk bees with you.  I don't own any, but think I'd like to take up that hobby when I retire in 3 yrs.
