Holy cow! That's amazing! Tell your grandmother congratulations and Happy Birthday! Well, I will definitely have more in the future! I'll keep posting as I hatch more.Not living at home for the time being. Home is sixty miles away on eighteen acres. Right now I am caregiving for my 99 year old grandmother....

Hi other San Diego peeps! I am very excited to have found this site, and mostly this thread! It is a little shocking to me that the San Diego thread has the most activity.
Anyway, I am new to the chicken thing. I recently convinced my husband to build a coop and get some chickens. We are leaning toward Easter Eggers (2-3), Welsummers (1-2), and maybe an Olive Egger. The thought is it would be a great experience for the grandbabies when they come over. Oh, who am I kidding? I like the idea of having the fun colored eggs. ;-) I've tried to find someone local that has these breeds, but I haven't found Welsummers or Olive Eggers yet. Also, I am a little leery of buying hens from a feed store or TSC, because I am not convinced we would get the breed or sex we want. Especially since I am not knowledgeable enough to decipher this on my own.
We live in the high desert, so I am trying to learn about chicken care with the really hot summer temps and the snow in the winter. So far, I know what DLM means! Hopefully that process works well here.
Any advice you may have would be greatly appreciated. Also, I looked back a few pages and didn't see anything about an upcoming meetup. Did I miss it?
Thanks, Deb, for all the great info! I had no idea that the stores ONLY have females. That makes things SOOOO much easier. I will see if I can find some Welsummers and Olive Eggers here. Easter Eggers seem to be everywhere. If not, maybe I could order them from MPC, since they seem to be a popular hatchery.
I am actually just west of you in Blvd. I don't get to say I am west of very many people in San Diego. ;-)
