much ado about VA

[MyChickpeas]

Hi all. I just joined and am from Schuyler, just outside Charlottesville. I have had a few setbacks with my peeps this year but have big plans for a new coop. I'm getting some great ideas from this forum. Mainly I need to keep the chickens in and my sisters dogs OUT! They got my RIR on Thanksgiving and my Ameraucana on Christmas - nice holiday huh?

Anyway I am looking forward to some meets and am looking for some wt leghorns. (My boyfriend read somewhere that they lay the most eggs)

I love both sites,lots of good info and people to talk chicken with.

I raise Silkies.I have 5 now and two show qualities on the way by mail and six that will start hatching this very day.
Love Those Crazy Silkies.

Greetings! I'm new here, and I don't have any chickens yet, but I'd like to get some. I live in Bedford.

Does anybody know if there are any good places to buy chicks locally in the Bedford-Lynchburg area? I'm not looking for anything exotic, just something like Rhode Islands, New Hampshires, Plymouth or Sussex.
