Introducing Myself

[DieselDave]

Hi,
I've been a member of BYC for 10 years but I don't have any chickens as the wife does not like the idea. When the Covic 19 confinement hit I told her, "we're gonna run out of food and you're gonna be sorry for all the times you stopped me from getting some chickens. With this scare she finally relented and I'm on my way to raising chickens. We live in Southern Ca. and every place I've called is out of baby chicks. Does anyone know where I might purchase some? Thanks, Dave

You might try your state thread to find some chicks. Here's a link to "Where am I? Where are You" forum and your state thread:

Hello, Dave, and welcome to BYC. As you have discovered right now chicks/chickens are in high demand and short supply. Locate, and post in your state thread - perhaps someone there can help. Good luck.
