Hi everyone! Great to be a part of such a wonderful community of info.

I'm new too (in NJ). Lived in So Cal for 17 years, didn't know anyone in the OC with chickens. Did have a neighbor in Long Beach with one though.

Wow - we are practically neighbors

We bought 2 of our chickens from a woman in Lake Elsinore - so we passed right by your neck of the woods. Thx for the welcome.

Thanks for the welcome. Sorry to hear about your Roo. We got a Roo in our first batch of chicks and had to send him to a farm and I actually cried giving him up. Not the same, I know. But its amazing how fast they get into your heart. He was a beautiful boy. RIP

Not sure about the cold yet. We are just getting our first chicks in April (all cold hardy breeds though).
