Who else is from New Hampshire? .....

[smalljewells]

Just wondering who else is from NH? I have many questions about the winter and what to do with my "love ones" during the brutal cold!

Hi!

Another NH chicken owner here. There is another New Hampshire thread in the "Where am I" forum. If you post under "Flock Management" there are plenty of people who keep chickens in much colder weather than we get.

hi!

I'm in Nashua NH. My girls are all indoors, since I live in an apartment (with permission to keep them

) right now. Whenever I manage to get a house, they'll STILL be indoors, but with an option to walk outside into a run if they want. In the meantime, they get walks on leashes with little 'vests' on in the woods.

I'm in NH too, but this is our first year with chickens so I don't know much about how they'll do in the winter.

From new hampshire just checking around if anyone has any chickens they want to get rid of or sell just looking to mix my flock
age and sex not a preference

Does anyone know where I can get some young ducklings asap? I have a day-old Mallard single hatchling that needs some company desperately. Willing to consider other breeds and will drive to pick up most anywhere in New England. Please let me know if you know of any options.

Thanks!

Hello all! I am here in the southern part of NH. I am
looking for a place to get chicks locally. I found a lady a few years agowho sold all different breeds of chicks somewhere off Rt 125 near the speedway. Anyone know of her? Or any other good local places to get chicks? Thanks a bunch!!

Thr grain store in the middle of downtown Derry, NH has nice chicks. Below is a link to their website.

Call them to find out when they are getting chicks in and what breeds they will have. To eliminate any roosters don't get straight run. Get pullets only. Good luck.

Most all feed stores have chicks in the spring.

Hi! We just joined this wonderful site! We live in a small 18thc. cape---the oldest standing house in Center Ossipee NH. We have never had chickens before and are just beginning our backyard chicken-keeping adventure! Our coop will go up Apr. 1 or so, and we have four apprx. 6-9 week old buff orpingtons coming by post about Apr. 11. We are trying to collect all we think they will need now as budget allows and learning as much as we can from this site and all the great members!
We think we will get a large Rubbermaid plastic container and make a temp home for the chicks as we've seen some do here. They shouldn't need to be in it long, and it seems easy and economical. Trying to take a step at a time and not get overwhelmed or too fearful of making a mistake!
You can 'visit' us in New Hampshire here~ We would love some new NH friends and chicken help!
