Hey gang..... anybody know where I can pick up some chicks? I am in Mesa and really don't want to drive to the other side of town to find some. Any suggestions would be helpful! Thanks.

The Ace Hardware in Queen Creek often has chicks. Also the Pet Club on Country Club Rd usually has chicks. The Mesa Feed Barn is another that usually has chicks. Higley Feed has chicks sometimes too, but not all of the time.

I'll check with Pet Club..... Mesa Feed Barn told us earlier this week that they won't have any until late Sep. I was told the Feed Barn has them but they are on the other side of town from us. Thanks for the suggestions!

If you can't find any, I could incubate some eggs for you.

Great to see pastrymama and Laree this morning. My wife is going to miss those dark speckled eggs. She won't miss all the roos. :0)

Bought 10 bags of Egg Maker at the Feed Barn. They have a bunch of turkeys, assorted chicks, some ducks, a goose and a goodly number of hens that look like they are either laying or at point of lay... Buff orps, production reds and Barred Rocks.

Wish we'd get some rain, but that's like hoping against hope. Lots of clouds out to the east, but they are all moving east and our dewpoints have gone under 50.

Got the car washed, #5 got the lawn mowed, took DD out for a burger... now she wants to go swimming. I guess I should enjoy a day off cuz they are only young once. DW has been taking each one the little darlings out to shop for school clothes. God bless her, that would drive me nuts.
