Welp! The lumber for my duck pen got delivered. Now to carry it all into the backyard when I get home and nag my husband and FIL incessantly to get the framing completed this weekend.

Hi. Im new here! We've got our brooder set up and are in the process of building our coop. Just wondering if anyone has recommendations for where to get chicks locally? We're out in the fall city/carnation/ duvall area, but dont mind traveling a ways for better/healthier chicks. Im looking for wyandotte's, orpingtons, and barred rock's. Thank you!!!

You might try DeltaBluezTess (I think that's her name) she's in Carnation and is a good breeder!

Hi all. My family and I have finally cleared a nice spot for a coop and the (yet unpurcharsed) chickens to range. The brooder is set up, but empty

We are really interested in Faverolles but can't seem to find anyplace locally that has them. We would have to wait until mid-june to get chicks mail order from Meyer, and would prefer to skip the post office entirely if possible.

Does anyone know where we might get some Faverolles in Western WA? We are in Port Orchard, but would be happy to drive anywhere this side of the Cascades.


McMurray has them as well, but we really don't want 15 chickens (we are looking for 8, ideally.)

I know someone who breeds Favs, but he doesn't come on this list. If you pm me with an email addy, I can forward the information to him. He has a lot of really super birds and is a very nice person.

I know at least 4 people that will be showing Faverolles at the show in Monroe at the Fairgrounds this Saturday, they're very popular locally. You might want to drop by and get acquainted. There could very well be some for sale (along with other breeds). And it's a really fun day, too.

Hi and Welcome to the group! Like I suggested above, drop by the poultry show at the Monroe Fairgrounds on Saturday. There will definitely be chicks for sale!

If you can make it to the show in Monroe. Look for this guy. He has Salmon Faverolles in both Bantam and LF.

He can also connect you with others who have them. I bet IF you sent him a PM he might be able to bring you some hatching eggs.

I may have some Silver Penciled Plymouth Rock chicks the first week of April. I don't live in that area but I would be willing to meet somewhere along I-5. Just PM if interested. And

You might PM a woman that goes by Slinglings . I haven't seen here on this thread lately, but I know she's been hatching. She's in N. Seattle.
