North to Alaska!

I'm sure if you don't have over 30 and keep it low key it won't be an issue. Lol it's Alaska we are about as loosely governed as one can get.

I've been able to find an old ordinance for the City of Wasilla, but I don't live within city limits and so I believe the bourough code is what we would adhere to. But, thus far, I've been unable to teach down the bourough codes regarding chickens, if there even are any.

Call the borough office in Palmer. They can tell you for sure.

Thanks!

Do any of the Fairbanks folks know of anyone that breeds and sells chicks locally? We picked up about some chicks at the feed store, but I was interested to know if anyone sells any other breeds. We are back up 18 birds right now. I don't want to have to order another 25 from the hatchery, and my husband will probably divide me if I do.

Uggghh, autocorrect on my phone.. "divorce".

Have you checked Craig's list? I think I saw a local person selling some

Next year I will be selling partridge silkies and maybe some BLRW.

Oliversmom, I don't know if you are interested in roos, but once my chicks are old enough to tell I'll be culling the roos from my flock as I'm sure my neighbors would kill me if I kept them. If you are interested and ever come to the valley I can keep you updated. I have 19 chicks currently and hatching eggs on the way so there should be at least a few. They are mostly mutts but are all bred from Americauna and RIR breeds. I'll also hopefully have some black copper marans if the hatch goes well once we get our eggs.

We could all meet up for coffee sometime and talk flock. peorhaps create an organization.
Kinda like 4h for adults or something.kinda help each other out with advice ect.
Monthly or bi monthly meetings would be a cool.

I am game for a chicken keeper meeting! I'm in North Pole.

 

[allsummedup]

Yay!!! I've got a couple!

I just now thought something like Alaska Feed might help with something like that. Like an area to meet at. Did you start a thread about this event?
