San Diego Chicken meetup and Chat thread

[SunnyCalifornia]

I'm looking forward to the meet up! My weather is suggesting rain until sunrise, then drying up after that. It might be muddy, but I bet we'll have the place to ourselves!

Hey all! Is anyone bringing duck eggs? (For eating, not hatching) I wanted to get some last time but asked too late!

 

[tigerrrrrrrlilly]

I bought a 10 x 20 canopy to help us cover up.

I'm hoping I can sell some chicks to make some of the money back!

I have some signs too and will do my best to get there before 9am to hold our spot and set up.

If you guys want to post what food you are bringing I will construct a list and update.

I had an idea that maybe hot water bottles would help keep the babies warm. If I get time I will go scope out the area again to see if there is some outlets around.

Hi All-American-Chick, I would love to buy a couple of bars of lavender.

Are we doing a list of food for Sunday, or do we just bring something and figure it will all even up?

Ok guys, have a dilemma here... our food order came today and it's sitting at our friends shop. I was going to put it in the truck and bring it here until Sunday, but the pallet is HUGE... over 6 feet tall and 2500 pounds!

ALSO to make matters worse, because it's a holiday weekend, our friend will NOT be at the shop on Saturday, Sunday OR Monday!!! So do I break it down and make a WHOLE BUNCH of little trips and bring it back home here...? Which I guess really isn't feasible for me as the warehouse is over 30 minutes away from the house...??? OR do I find somewhere to store the pallet down there in El Cajon until Sunday? Which I would still need to break it up into smaller trips, but at least it would be a lot closer... So I guess I am asking if anyone can help me move it and if anyone has a place to put it for 2 days? Or ideas??? Help!

 

[WhiteMountainsRanch]

Ok, we've decided to bring the food here since there really isn't anywhere in El Cajon that we know of to put it. I think with the big truck we can get it all in three loads.

We'll probably be moving it for most of the morning so if anyone wants to come help us load that would be great!


Also, if anyone wants to pick up their food from my house that would be best as I wouldn't have to drive three times down to Lake Murray to haul all the food down there.

 

[All-American-Chick]

you can store it here over the weekend.
i have a room out back that is weathered in and safe from any thing getting to it.

like you said though it is a room and it would need to be brooken down to be packed inside.
we could help bring it to the meeting in the truck with no cover on it.
we can even do pick up here so we would not have to reload the truck.besides id love to meet more of you all.

just a thought and throughing that out to you.
im in ramona and pick up can be worked out

 

[WhiteMountainsRanch]

Thank you for the offer, but I think my house is actually a lot closer than Ramona.

You can meet me down there though to get yours and help load if you want.

Thanks!
