Send me an email to julia at city farm girls dot ca and I'll hook you up with my favorite chicken pimp :) You can get feed and all the supplies at WestWay feed in Delta (closest place).

Just putting the last touches on our little chicken coop. In the next week or two we need to buy 6 young layers; probably two different kinds, 12 to 16 weeks or so? New to this so advice is needed and appreciated. We live in Kits. Where to buy young hens, best place to pick up feed and water dispensers etc?  Lorraine

We're probably keeping all these girls as our new laying stock but I can help you find some when you're ready Kristi. I have my hands full this weekend but some time next week would probably work for a visit Lorraine.

Hi Julia, I would love to see your chickens. Sunday would work for me or anytime that is good for you.  [email protected]    Thanks, Lorraine

Julia - wow, 227!  What breeds did you get?  I'll likely be ready for birds in a month - can I request 3 lovely ladies?

Welcome Lorraine! I'm just at 43rd and Blenheim and there are two other members with chickens a few blocks from me so you should come out for a coop tour! In addition to our backyard flock, I run a small chicken farm in Richmond and Southlands with two other members. We currently have 227 baby chicks so you better come see them while they're still little and cute! I can probably help you fill your coop. Are you looking for any breeds in particular?

I just found this sight today. Our coop is nearing completion and we will be looking for 6 youngish birds, maybe 24 weeks or so?  Any suggestions where to buy them?  I'm in Kits, are there any of you with hens

in this part of town?  I would love to see your girlies, your set-up and ask lots of questions.  First time for me. I'm reading all the books but am such a greenhorn!  I'm delighted to find this community.  If anyone is going to the auction in Langley I would love to come along. (I don't drive).  Thanks,  Lorraine

4th & Woodland you can come see my chickens any time (not far from Broadway & Commercial). My landlord let me do it, and I live in an apartment! My situation is not typical though. Send me a message here (I have to be your 'friend' to send you a message). I am supposed to be at the workshop (Ecodreaming) all day tomorrow but definitely home Sunday.

Hey all, I'm wondering if anyone in my neighborhood (near Broadway and Fraser) would be willing to show off their chickens and coop. I used to have some chickens in Victoria and would like to get some for our place in Vancouver but my landlord wants to see first-hand how it works. Anyone interested in showing off their chickens (this weekend)? Please let me know.
