Does anyone know where locally to get healthy young bantam hens?

Thanks

I don't. However, if you are mid-valley it might work out that you could buy the eggs and I'd hatch them for you. A quarter per chick.

You all should check out the oregon swap/meet up we are trying to get together!

One of my favorite local sources is Pistils Nursery on N. Mississippi in Portland. You can check them out online http://www.pistilsnursery.com/chicken-keeping

They also have "Pullet Day" around this time of year.

Anyone in the Salem/pdx/other nearby places have Marek's vaccine that they are planning to admin? They are sold out nationwide, and I don't want to have to buy a whole bottle for 5-6 chicks anyway. It's a longshot I know, but if you have some that you're going to use and we're close to each other, I'd happily pay a bit to throw some chicks in to be stuck.

Agency Lake, about 25 miles SE of Crater Lake NP. Near Chiloquin if that helps, and if that doesn't, we're 35 miles north of Klamath Falls.

There is a great little kid's wooden playhouse for sale at Costco in Clackamas right now which would make an adorable coop for 3-4 birds with minimal modifications. It's even got a chicken weather vane on top! They don't have it on their website, but I'm telling you it's one of the cutest playhouses I've ever seen. It's around $290. DH was in a hurry, so I couldn't get an extensive look at it. Hope someone might benefit from my find. If I didn't already have the Coop deVille, I'd buy it in a heartbeat (plus I have too many chickens for it...). Have a good week everyone. Wintery weather returning.
