Hi!
I just picked up my day old chicks. I have my starter feed but need to get my grower feed soon and so on. Is anyone here from Vancouver, Canada and knows where a one stop shop for all things raising backyard hens. The closest I know of is in Langley, BC which is a quite a drive away from me...
also, where are you getting your starter feed? I got mine at otter co-op feed in langley, but i want to find somewhere closer
and regarding potential health issues - did you find a place to purchase medication for in case the chicks get coccidiosis?
Very cool! I just picked up my chicks - my current set up is a brooder heatplate type from amazon, big cardboard box with wood shavings, a cardboard home made feeder, and water with some apple cider vinegar. i got my chicks from junecreekfarm in langley - it was a good experience overall
Thanks Iluveggers! We're looking for tons of eggs and we have space for them to be active free rangers. I hope that helps. I look forward to your suggestions
Thanks again =)
Hi everyone,
