Hi from San Diego

[seann]

Hello,

Hello from San Diego. Me, my wife and our two children are thinking of getting four chickens for eggs.
I've researched for a couple of days but still couldn't find a place to buy them (hens). Any suggestions?
I'll also be building the chicken coop and could use some advice on: type of wood and size.
I'll continue my research.

Thanks.

Alright and

glad you could join us

All you need to do is ask as we chickens are all over this
state and if I were you I might check the buy sell trade
under Forum at the top of the page

But you forgot to mention a person needs to have 20 Post
before they can use the Buy sell Trade

Well then it sounds like they might want to say welcome to
20 different new comers wont that count as 20 Posts

Ya I do believe that is about it,,,,,,,, then that new bee
can look at the Buy Sell Trade and find what they are
looking for

Sure sounds fare to us,,,,, let's getter dune ,,,,,,,,,

Enjoy your time here at BYC

Everyone is here to help

Great place to start. I think there are a couple of California threads. Perhaps someone local can help set you up.
