San Diego Chicken meetup and Chat thread

Hi everyone been in lurker mode. The heat is kicking my butt right now... I have had some losses across the board- all ages. Very tough. Keeping the poultry and livestock cool and watered and fed has just been harder. I feel your pain Deb

I am so sorry. Oz is right. We all have chickens for you when you're ready.

thanks OGM.... I been drinking lots of water and CRAVING of all things Seaweed. I figure what the heck its got alot of minerals. Bought some Korean stuff that is dried in single flakes covered with sea salt and sesame oil.... Also wanting lots of fruit. I force myself to drink Gatoraid... but cant drink more than half a container. I CRAVE water only.

Deb, if you have a hankering for chicks, I'll be hatching out small batches all summer. Olandsk roo over dorking, easter egger, bresse, dutch, arkansas blue, barrett farms blue, and the Olansdk girls. Basically medium egg layers You get the "something wild had a good lunch" special - free.

Gosh, Deb - what a rotten run you've had! I hope this is the end of the bad news, and that everything is peaches & harmony from here on out. Big hugs to you!

Let me know when you're ready to rebuild that flock.
