Hi Chicken Folk,

Ameraucana Available:  I just sold a coop to a young man near Clark Dr. with a nice array of birds and he's downsizing his flock a little.  He has an ameraucana that lays...brown eggs.  I have met this bird and she's a healthy layer - I think about a year old - $20.  Call me up if interested 604-329-3863.

Hi All
Just received this posting from the 4H club, in case anyone is looking for chickens.

From: "dykeman"
Subject: 4-H fundraiser chicken sale

We have a big 4-H auction coming up on Sept. 20th at McClary stockyards. I have attached a copy of the flyer. 100% of the money is going to our 4-H club. One of the things going through the auction are 3 Rhode Island Red ready to lay (or just started laying) hens. Healthy fully vaccinated etc. We also have several project birds; As well as 99 whole grain, naturally feed roaster chickens, that are Federally inspected and shrink wrapped. going up for auction. They we raised as a group market project.

We are accepting proxy bids, but would also love it if anyone can make it out! It should be fun!

Scratch is a mix of grains with either corn or peas (my birds prefer the corn option). In addition to scratch, you can feed your hens layer pellets which will promote egg production. The closest feed store to Vancouver is probably Roddicks (http://www.roddickfeedandfarm.com/feed.htm) in Ladner. They are very knowledgeable and will let you know what else you need (a small bag of oyster shell and of grit would be recommended).

I need more scratch. Anyone need anything from the feed store?

Ducks aren't allowed although I don't see why not. They are friendlier, can produce just as well as chickens and don't make as much noise.

How bout ducks? I've been thinking duck for their excellent slug eat abilities.
