I almost went and got more today thinking I'd try to make sure there were some pullets in the group. My little one from my birds is a BSL and a pullet, so at least one girl for sure in the bunch. I have a poultry auction 2 1/2 blocks from my house. I can always take what I don't want later there, but I pay then what I spend that way. Always craigslist I guess. I really don't want hatchery chicks, but since my husband passed away last month I think I'm trying to just find something to do. He didn't mind me buying chickens. Heck he paid for most of them, built me coops and wasn't that crazy about my birds. As long as I was happy he was all for me having them though. Guess I'm trying to make myself happy.
Think I will buy more after all. Could maybe help me later afford some better quality ones. I do have eggs coming though. Just tired of the PO and loose air cells. 0 hatches have been the norm lately with the shipped eggs.
I want to hatch everything these days!
Aww, yes, you go get you those chickens. I think that would be a great hobby/time spender. Shoot, my chickens keep my mind off of a lot of stuff. I swear I feel like I feed a zoo 5 times a day but it's not that much really. That's a lot of time when you add it up!
