I live 30 miles from an egg farm that is offering 1 year old hens for sale at 50 cents each. Pick up will be next Saturday. I can get as many as anybody wants.
I got 70 yesterday. They are molting, but seem ok otherwise. They aren't too skinny, but they are depleted from egg-laying--white legs and light pink combs. NO runny noses. A few had had their beaks trimmed, but none were debeaked. All are very alert and active. These are all white leghorns, but they had brown hens too.
I live 60 miles SE from Erie, Pa. I am 2 hours away from Cleveland or Buffalo, State College, Pa, or Pittsburgh. You could pick them up here or I could meet you if you would be so kind as to cover my gas expenses.
P.s. They are quiet--not a peep on the ride home. Right now they are just standing around confused. They have never seen the sun, the sky, or grass dogs or turkeys ducks and geese. Rabbits are fascinating! They are still thinking about how the ground feels, I think. They are very timid about walking.
PM me if you are interested!
