Hi all, I'm Tisha and I'm new here from the desert. I grew up with chickens living in Lake Isabella, CA but haven't had them since I've been on my own the last 6 years. I moved to Ridgecrest a few years ago and now that my daughter is about the same age I first discovered my love for bantam chickens, I wanted to get a few. I've been begging my husband since we moved here to get them and he finally told me I can the other day. Is there a chicken friendly area in Ridgecrest? I'm still not 100% sure what the rules are on poultry here. I don't really have neighbors but I still live in the middle of town.
Also, I'm looking for hatching eggs of white crested black polish and silkies (not real concerned of the color silkie). Mixed are okay too as I'm not interested in showing them. I only want a few hens as pets and those are my favorite breeds. I'm in need of an incubator too if anyone close to my area has one I can buy cheaper than amazon. Willing to drive if within a couple hours from me. I thought about buying straight runs from McMurry's but since I won't be keeping any roos I hatch, this may be the only time my little one gets to experience chicks hatching. So I'll take one for the team and cross my fingers I don't get all roos lol.
Is there a specific thread for my area? I've never used a forum site so I'm having a hard time navigating.
