"Chicken School" in the State of Delaware

Want to learn about winterizing you coop, winter poultry diseases, or proper coop ventilation? If you live in or near the State of Delaware, then you are in luck. These topics and more will be presented in both Kent and Newcastle counties this December at the Small Flock Education Series, organized by Dr. Brigid McCrea, small flock speacialist at Delaware State University. Her announcement is below, and be sure to check out the attached agenda and brochure for details. (Wish I did not live so far away!)

Attention all fans of poultry! You are invited to attend our FREE chicken school this December! Our Small Flock Education Series or “chicken school” will be held every 2 months for the next year. Getting ready for winter? Well this December agenda is just for you! We will begin our chick network at this meeting in December. Everyone understands that getting the chickens you want in the quantities you want can be difficult. So this network is aimed at helping you connect with others to meet the minimum order requirements for on-line hatcheries. Thinking about chicks in the springtime--then join us to learn about incubation and brooding (join our chick network at that time too!). Also, there will be representatives from local feed stores present to assist you with ordering chicks directly. There will also be prizes for the best-dressed holiday chicken so bring your photographs!

Kind regards,

Brigid McCrea
