    New chicks, how to get then in california.

    I also am in CA. and my local feed stores do sell chicks and fertilized eggs to incubate. It is my understanding that your local city/county ordinances decide the chicken/ chick laws. Good luck to you!

    What are the regulations for your city in regards to backyard chickens?

    Sadly, my town also doesn't allow chickens, but recently with the closing of my school site, I took home our classroom eggs. A week later the chicks arrived, now my chicks are a week old and I've grown quite attached to them. Looking in to my city ordinances....I can apply for a permit...
