Ijust got 9 chicks from the mill in whiteford, they seemed pretty fair with pricing and good for a store like that. Got black australorps and americanas.

Nice! Large eggs come from both. Enjoy.

How close are you to Salisbury? Farmers and Planters on Mill St will be having Silkie pullets. I believe that it is next month. Most of their chicks are $4.00. The tractor supply in Berlin had Ameraucanas arrive on Friday. Check The Guide or Craigslist for birds too. There are some people that had to purchase 6-25 chicks when they wanted lesser amounts.

We are about an hour down fifty towards Annapolis. Thanks for the heads up, I will check out Farmers and Planters. Tracor supply always makes us get 6. Don't want six more. Want to grow flock slowly. Have a couple of contacts off craigslist as well now, thanks!

Hi I am in Lothian the southern most spot in AA county right in the middle of PG county line and Calvert line. Just got 4 bantams, 4 ISA browns, and 6 RIR. Excited to have chickens in the backyard eating up the bugs and getting some fresh eggs.

I know. Isn't it wonderful. Did you start off with chickens or chicks?Best wishes!

Starting with chicks so it will be a bit before the eggs start coming. Neighbors are gracious enough to share theirs with us right now Tired of spraying for ticks wanted to use something more natural to combat. Also the spiders. As far as I am concerned as long as they eat some they are worth their weight in gold. After we finish clearing more of our lot we are thinking about getting 2 goats but that is a long way down the road. Between the chicks and the two dogs I am happy. I do catch myself watching the chicks for longer then I intend my husband commented on it but I catch him doing it too.

I have a 4 week old brood of chicks. I have 4 baby roos In with 30 pullets. Today I keep hearing a half crow. Is this possible? They are going in the coop on their 5th week old day, which is Saturday.
