We have already looked there, but the limit is 3 chicks for each breed, and we don't need that many. We just want to have 4 chickens, all different breeds. Otherwise, we would check there. We have also checked Craigslist and can't find any of the breeds we want.
We are looking to replenish our flock, and are wondering where to get them because hatcheries have a minimum and we don't need as many as their minimum is. Looking for laying purposes.
