I just bought six chicks from TSC. We got three and they told me they were production reds and were unsexed. We paid $1.99 for each of them. In other bin there were chicks which it said were sexed and they were $2.99 each and they said they were all girls - we got three of those which were Buffs. Each of the signs at the TSC where we bought the chicks had the breed listed and whether they were sexed or unsexed. We've had them for a week now and they have nearly tripled in size. I was willing to take a chance on the production reds knowing that I could get all three boys or a combination. If we happen to have any males I will have to give them away. We're not allowed to have roosters in the city limits. I just bought these six on a spur of the moment decision - but they have been healthy and very active. I went back that same afternoon to get some for a friend and every chick they had was gone. As soon as they are getting them in they are selling out. Whomever is taking care of them at the local TSC is keeping the bins clean and all the chicks looked good. I've never bought any from them before so I'll see how they do, but the clerks were able to tell me what the breeds were as well as it being posted on each bin.
