These are my first chickens, gifts from a daughter for Christmas. Once they started laying, it's rare to have a day without one egg from each hen. They come when I call them, stay close to the...

Welcome to BYC, indeed. I see you want to sell them to a friend. You don't want to either over charge nor under charge, apparently. Frankly, your answer is simply in the $15 dollar range, give or take. That's the reality. Some place are still getting a wee bit more, some quite a bit less.

If it is your friend, you're not interested in gouging them, I am sure. $2.50 for the chick, bedding, electricity to brood, feed, feed and more feed. Chances are real good that you've got $12-$14 in these birds, easily. You're not gonna take a trip to DisneyWorld on the profits, as there just isn't any.

Your labor? That's pretty much donated, I'm afraid.

If it's your friend, get your expenses back and call it a day. You probably value your friendship and would like to keep it that way.

Hi, Best of luck in finding a buyer. Presently in Kentucky they would go between $10 - $12.
