The Love Apple Farm is South Bay San Fran is offering a class in May on raising chickens, and is also offering chicks/brooder kit at the end of the class. I'm considering taking this class, and also getting my chicks from there. I like the idea of gaining a bit of hands-on experience and info since I've never dealt with chickens (or animals, for that matter). Here's the link:

Anything I should ask them or know before signing up? Does this seem like something that would be beneficial or would it be better to get chickens from a hatchery?
