Boise! Would anyone in the area like to share an order for day-old chicks (and the shipping fee of $36.95) from MyPetChicken? I only want to order two and the minimum order is four. Would like to do this soon. I ordered from them last year and the hens are healthy and beautiful. I paid extra for Marek's Vaccination ($1/chick), and it is so worth it. Take a look at the website and let me know. Here is the link: http://www.mypetchicken.com/catalog/Day-Old-Baby-Chicks-c36.aspx Thanks.

Idahomestead... What kind of chicks are you wanting to get... if it was me I would just get with another BYC member in Boise and get a couple of chicks from them.. For example I know ROLOIdaho has some great Marans...

What kind of chicks do you want? I'm hatching black copper marans, blue orpington, wheaten ameraucana, silver ameraucana, and bantam cochin. I might be able to get them to Boise if you can wait until I have the chicks hatched for some Boise orders I have on my list. You would have to pick them up at their house as they are picking them up here in Paul, Idaho. If you want hatchery birds, a lot of feed stores start having sexed pullets available in March. You would have to ask them what breeds they will be ordering.

Am looking for a double-laced barnevelder roo and a silver-laced wyandotte female.

Am looking for a double-laced Barnevelder roo and a silver-laced wyandotte female. Your marans eggs are gorgeous.,

 

[pawtraitart]

Have you tried KSL? I think there is a breeder for both of those breeds in Utah. I love double laced barnevelders. I don't have enough room for another breed, though.

Hey, Idahomestead....did you see that there is a new CL ad for sl wyondotte hens? (Caldwell)

 

[Idahomestead]

No I didn't. Have been otherwise engaged the last few days and didn't have access to the web. Will take a look. Thanks.

 

[Idahomestead]

No, I haven't, but thanks for the tip. Will check with them.
