Hello from Quebec

Hi everyone, I'm from Quebec, in a rural town not too far from Hawksbury, Ontario.

I had chickens for a few years but since we just moved into our new house about a year ago, I had to get set up again before getting more chickens! So I am now in the process of building a chicken tractor and am looking into getting some chicks this spring. That's the main reason I subscribed to this forum, trying to find breeders near me. I am really interested in raising and breeding Buckeyes but they are hard to find around where I live!! I am also looking forward to reading about all kinds of poultry related subjects. Because I looooove chickens!! :)

You may want to visit Ormstown Fair Poultry Show in June, good place to see what is being shown up your way.

Welcome aboard Anais! We have all your poultry needs and then some! I see you reached out to La-Chicken, shes a fantastic Buckeye breeder with the most excellent Buckeyes Iv ever seen! I think she is heavily involved in the Buckeye club. Heres her website, http://www.lalallamas-chickendivision.com/ and heres the Buckeye Club, where she is the only Canadian breeder listed. http://americanbuckeyeclub.blogspot.ca/

I breed Rhode Island Reds and I searched for a while trying to get the perfect birds to start with, so I totally understand the passion and the search involved to find the best birds! My reds came from Quebec

hehe Crystal (La-Chicken) like to call RIR's "the other Red," well, LOL, I now like to call Buckeyes "the other red!"

Good luck in your search and have a good one!
