Hello from the Urban Farm and Garden

[TheUrbanFarm&Garden]

Hi All,

I have visited the web-site several times. Got on today and joined as I had a sick pet chicken. Thank you for the quick response and all the great info!
My name is Lorri. We live in Southern CA. I am an outlaw chicken owner ... and proud of it!

We started the UF&G with 4 bunnies then got 3 chicks...which quickly grew to 16 pullets and chicks! No eggs yet!!! That's right no eggs! There are 4 that look like full grown chickens and I am wondering if they are on STRIKE. Still buying free range, organic store bought (yuk) eggs...hope this changes soon! Looking forward to meeting some of you and learning a lot more about my girls!

from NC! I have some of those freeloading chickens of which you speak! Nine to be exact (can't count the two Roos as they are doing everything they can think of to encourage laying) freeloading club meding chickens!! Gotta love em!!

from Kansas, Lorri! Happy you joined BYC!

Hope your sick chick gets better soon and those eggs start coming! Mine won't be ready to lay until about December!
