San Diego Chicken meetup and Chat thread

[vannaHaines]

perchie.girl, I'm very sorry. I do understand why an old timer wouldn't want to leave.
igotchickens, you rocked those nest boxes!
vannaHaines, I could cut you a piece of 3 ft. wire. I don't have any plywood that big to spare.

Knock Kneed Hen - If you have a 3' by 3' piece available that would be wonderful! Don't worry about the plywood. Thank you so much!!!!

Not a huge deal, but cheaper-than-new chain link panels in Fallbrook: http://sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/grd/3294614623.html

If you know your wood sizes you need Home Depot will cut the plywood for you. As long as you dont "need" it to be perfect.

Also you can get very good prices at Discount plywood in El Cajon. They are on Bradley facing Gillespie field. They are where the roofers go for materials. And they sell retail too. You have to drive into the yard and park inside to get to the office. Very nice helpful people.

Are we still using this thread as the local meetup thread or the new one?

Sorry about your friend, Perchie.girl. I know a lot of people who lived in that area and I'm sure they knew him, too.

Hi, I start a new thread with each meet up so that I can go and edit the first page since I didn't start this page and have no way of editing it. The current meet up page should be reserved for talking only about the upcoming meet up.

Current meetup information for Sept. 30th: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/707787/details-for-the-next-san-diego-meet-up-sept-30-2012

ETA: After the meetup I'll have the thread locked so there'll be no confusion for newbies trying to find current information.

I keep wondering if we should have a new, official SD page that doesn't have "Meet-up" in the title... more of an masthead page. I guess this one could be locked, with the last post redirecting to the new page?

That might be a good idea
