    My chicks are dying!!! Hoovers Hatchery

    I'm in the Scranton, PA area. I order (sexed) chicks from Stromberg's, and they deliver my order to their store in Wilkes-Barre. I pick up my babies there. I've done this two years in a row, and haven't had a problem at all. Stromberg's headquarters is located in Minnesota, and will ship to your...

    Hi! Soon-to-be brand new chicken mama

    Oh, yes! I'm researching like a madwoman, figure I have a few months to get this all accomplished. I'm thinking 4x4 fence posts, 2x4 frame, 1/2" hardware cloth (with apron), door, corrugated roof (partial or entire). Lots to sift through for this inexperienced gal!
