Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

I didn't know there was a Wilco going in there. Sweet!
If you're on Facebook I've been seeing some straight run chicks for sale in the "PNW Poultry" group, as well as some local Rochester groups.
Oh wait, there's a WINCO that's almost ready to open. So is there also a Wilco opening?

I haven't heard anything about a Wilco in Chehalis. That would be great. But the Winco is expected to open in April. The building looks about ready now.

I think the Kelso Wilco is the northernmost store in the chain. More are to the south in Oregon.

I'm guessing the best way to get chicks these days would be to buy local eggs from people you know have roosters with the flock and incubate them to hatch. Who knows what breeds you'd get, but they'd be some egg laying variety.

I am going to hatch eggs here too.
Maybe the next dozen.
Can raise them in the old banty second room.
Enjoying my second cup of coffee this morning.

I was considering incubating my own, but luckily found the 3 australorps I wanted at Wilco. Just have to be there at the right time.
I wish one of my hens would go broody now. I think the eggs are fertilized and I would much prefer a hen raise the babies. I do have them growing in the coop, in a sectioned off area with heat. They are doing great, but it would be a much better experience for them if they had a mama. The reason I only got 3 is to accommodate a broody.

There's one in Puyallup off Hwy 512 and Canyon Road. It's a pain getting in and out of whenever I'm in that area.

I didn't know that. I didn't see it on their locations map.

That's odd. Been there awhile now. It's the one I shop at.
