Is this a good place to get chicks? My local feed store has two "trays" of chicks tha the says are domineckers (sp?) and Ameraucanas (sp?) but they all look alike to me.
What are your experiences with getting chicks from the feed store?
He said that he orders them from Ideal and that I could place an order with them to get the chicks here and they would seperate them when they arrived. I think that this will cut down on the shipping costs considering that I only want around 10 hens. He is charging me 2.75$ per chick delivered to the store. Is that too pricey for Buffs or Australorps?
15.50$ for a 50lb bag of chick starter. Is that also going price for feed?
Thanks
