    New & Excited about chickens- Southern CA !!!

    Hello Chickenmama! My name is Marietta and I have had chickens for about 5-6 years here in Long Beach, CA. I'm on Second Street near Redondo. I dropped by the BYC site today to try again to find people near me who have chickens and found you! Your last post here was a while back but I thought...

    Oh how nice to have other chicken people nearby! I haven't been looking here on BYC lately so I missed some of these entries until now. I did get the chicks in March and now have 8 adult birds laying. What a joy!!

    I agree! I want every type of chicken there is. Need a farm. Oh well! My little backyard city farm will just have to do. :-) Currently, I have three hens: aracauna, silver-laced wyandotte and maran. Love those girls. I'll be adding in March: another Aracauna, Rhode Island Red (2), Leghorn...

    I guess we must be just a little bit quirky to want and have backyard chickens in the city. I'm just fine with that! My husband and I live on a double lot near Bixby Park we've had chickens here for about five years. I'm the chicken lady, he's the admirer. I have four hens right now, two of...

    Did you lose a chicken in Long Beach, CA?

    So, did anyone ever come forward and claim that sweet chicken you rescued? I live in Long Beach, too, and have four pet chickens presently. All hens, of course. I'll be adding 5-6 babies in March and can't wait. I get them from Blacksmith's on Lakewood. We're fortunate to have the space for...

    I live in Long Beach, CA and have had chickens in my backyard for about five years. I'd love to know others in the area who have chickens as pets. I've had as many as seven hens - never a roo -- and right now I have four; leghorn, silver-laced wyandotte, maran, araucana. Will be adding 5-6...

    Hi! I live in Long Beach, CA and have had hens now for four and a half years. What a joy they are! I'm looking for someone who would like to trade chicken sitting care while either of us is away from home. I want a chicken lover to care for my girls. Interested? My first need is this...

    Swollen neck? (updated w/ pics. Still needing help.)

    I finally decided that she had a bacterial infection of some type and treated her with antibiotics for 7 days. Seemed to solve the problem. We didn't eat her eggs for the 7 days she was on antibiotics plus 7 days after. She's fine now but that part if her neck doesn't have feathers any more...
