for craigs list I list them at $2 each or 3 for $5. Then when they call if they ask about price I add if you want more than 5 I can give you a better deal. I only had 17 to sell, but I ended up with a total of $25. So nothing to make a fortune on. Just a way to keep my yard from becoming too crowded with chicks.


The prices you listed here are great prices.

Ok thanks. Glad you thought the prices were fair as well. I don't want to make money, I just want the obey to pay for its self. Right now I'm going through 75# of chick feed weekly. I really can't wait for them to get outside and free range or in the pens lol. My free ranging hens eat very little layer feed.

Short on time, but brought these 2 home from Wolf lake today. Not a Cochin, but she's pretty cool anyway!

Not certain yet my vet friend should be over later this week I will ask her opinion then. All I know it is a healthy male lamb and a lot of work with a bottle

Got back about 2 hrs ago from the Wolf lake swap. It was nice, but a lot of garage sale/flee market type stuff. Game type chickens, quail, pheasants, and peafowl were everywhere though! Good number of dogs (when will Indiana outlaw puppy mills!). I was proud of myself when we were walking back to the car with the carrier still empty. That is until we came up to the very last booth that just had got there and unpacking. My weakness! Silkies and showgirls. Yes I was just complaining how have too many chicks and then buy more!

There were several juvie's and adults, but wasn't happy with the way they look. Plus, I'm not a fan of buying adult birds as I don't have. Great quarantine area for them. So tis last book was week olds, hatched this past Tuesday (2 showgirls little older). I have no idea the quality but they were ok cute to pass up. Silkies and showgirls are the only thing this guy breeds so hoping they turn out nice. Im not sure how silkied the older two showgirls will be. they were freebies though.

Enough talking, here are the pictures
Silkie chick 1

Silkie chick 2

Silkie chick 3 (my favorite, can't wait to see adult color)

OMGosh! Those showgirl chicks are adorable!! I wish I could find some down here around my area.

Is the brown one a welsummer? If so and you got the chicks from the same seller, I remember seeing them. He had a bunch of geese as well, right?

He is a cutie. Let us hope he isn't as whiny as his name sake.

So how do you keep a dog from chasing/killing your chickens? My dog killed two of mine. :-( I'm so upset. I don't want to have to build a large run/pen as we have so much land they can roam on. Suggestions?
