Hey howdy hey,
Helena here. I've got about 50+ chickens here, about 13 breeds. I just hatched out welsummers and silkies and BC marans will be in the bator soon. I don't use the DE, I couldn't find it either so I use vinegar in the coops water. We had 13 inches of snow a couple of nights ago.

Hi -
I'm in Missoula county. We just passed a chicken ordinance in town and people are now "allowed" 3 hens. Apparently the Californians were snow-birding when the votes were cast... i smile thinking of renegade roosters and free-ranging chickens running around and creating a little Havana feel to this town I love so much.
I'm back in the business of raising chickens this year after a long enforced hiatus. See my story on the introduction forum. I am planning on breeding Dominiques and want to eventually sell. I have 2 straight runs coming in a couple weeks but I'm thinking of changing the order date to a bit later as I've read there's an awful lot of DOA's when they have so far to travel and it's still cold.
