I started with 2 BCM pullets last year. Only drove 1.25 hours each way, so not too bad. But then I was bitten by the hatching bug. lol I can handle 50% for each gender. And do have a place to rehome the guys, where they will be able to free range and eventually have hens of their own. But at the rate I am going with the % of boys hatched, my friend is going to have to set up a bachelor pad!
