Buying less than 15 chicks, anyone want to share an order?

[swgalway]

Hi...Maybe this is silly, but I'm going to give it a try. I live in Galway in upstate NY. I would like to buy 6 or 7 chicks, mixed layers from McMurray Hatchery. They all have minimum orders of 15 and I really dont want that many. Is there anyone out there that lives close to me (near Saratoga area) that is in the same bind and would like to share an order? What does everyone else do that is in this same situation?

I ordered mine from Cackle Hatchery, who will sell a "city special" of 10 chicks. If you ask nicely, they'll even give you an assortment rather than their official-policy 5 chicks of each type ordered.

Of course, as soon as I had ordered, my husband informed me that the feed store has tons of baby chicks for sale, so that might be an option for you too

Thanks for your replies...I ended up splitting an order with a friend, so now she, too, will be hooked! I will write down your comments for the future!
