Welcome! There are a lot of us North of the Gate as well! And we are always up for a party, but San Diego is just too far.

Oh well. Ron, you are not alone.

Fortunately, I only hang out with other chicken folk, so they all understand!!!

Here is my sister who was getting up close and personal with my 16 week old Silver Am "shoulder bird" from John Blehm... Too funny.

Thanks!

Back Yard Chickens really helps. I am sure once I have enough eggs for the neighbors they will be happy.

Great picture!

I'm looking for day to 1 week old baby chicks for one of my English hens. She's been sitting for the past two weeks and will not give up, I've run out of determination to try and break her...

PLEASE let me know if you have anything available!

New member with 4 new chicks in Davis. We are the envy of the neighborhood

Any reccomendations on good feed stores around here? (Woodland/ Dixon area)

Hayes Feed in Woodland on Main St. is my favorite, family owned feed store. There's also a Tractor Supply on the other side of town. Between Davis & Woodland is Windmill Feed.

Congrats on your chicks!

Jeremy I posted on the Bay Area thread, but if you don't mind some BCM mixed chicks I have some hatched the 24th. Olive Eggers.

Where can I get a good organic soy free feed near Livermore? I could also order online if shipping is reasonable.
I am a new chicken owner. I've had 2 houdan pullets (18 weeks old) and 3 EE's (6 weeks old) for three weeks. I love my little girls!

Welcome to BYC!

I live in Woodland and work at UCDavis.

Higbys in Dixon is good--they are family owned too and will special order. I buy Modesto Milling Non- soy from them. I order it on Monday and they have it on Friday.

Davis Lumber and Hardware has a pet section with some chicken feed.

Have fun!

Hi Laurie,

Here is a link to Modesto Milling retailers. Bio diesel Oasis sells their stuff. I have been using first the non soy starter and now the non soy layer for my chickens.

I agree with CapayValleyChick, Hayes Feed is great!

I find it hard to get to Hayes when they are open. They are closed on Sundays. They do not have a website so I could not verify their hours.

Higby's hours are

Hours
We're open seven days per week.
Mondays through Saturdays, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Sundays, 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.


Hayes Did not have much Organic feed and said they did not have a supplier of Non-Soy.

I get my chicken supplies online, from Tractor Supply Center in Woodland and Higbys.
