If you call Meyer and check to see what extras they have around 10am in the mornings, they may just have extra Salmon Favorelles. I had called on monday, and the lady had those as extras. I wish I had known you were looking for them.

OOO too bad chicmom, thats ok though... although the brooder is done I think I will need every day between now and April 30 (when I pick up my first set of chicks) to get the coops ready, and I don't think that I will have room to add another to be able to keep 4 sets of girls from getting into trouble, lol.

Although... maybe they will have some extras when I do my first pick up! That would be great!! Thanks so much for the info!!!

Hi, I am Fran from Perry County, Ohio. Just gettin started with 15 chicks. 9 red pullets and 6 assorted pulle ts.

Hi, Blessedchick. Do you have kids in 4H? We are in the Marengo Country Kids 4H group. I know Cardington has several clubs over that way. We're not a poultry club, but lots of our kids are into turkeys and chickens. And the ones that don't have poultry have rabbits, so most of us hang out in the same barn anyway.

Nice to meet you Chick-N-Pie. It seems like more and more people around us are raising chickens. It's getting to be a popular pastime.

Hi Ketcham, good luck with your flock this year! I'm at least fairly close to you....northwest Holmes county. I have call ducks right now - someone was always picking on someone else when I had the chickens & ducks together ...but I DO miss my chickens!

Hi! I'm in Montgomery County, Ohio...near New Lebanon/Trotwood area. We're about ten minutes West (I think) of the city of Dayton.

We're just getting into the chickens. Our lease says we can have horses and other domestic animals (livestock). I cannot find ANYTHING about chickens, etc, where we live. I mean, we aren't in any kind of city limits or anything. Since our lease gives explicit permission, I'm guessing we're good!

We are getting ready to build onto the side of our barn for our chicks!
