I want to ask a simple question I see people posting they are buying 2,3,4 chicks of different bred, I realize that you are guaranteed those breeds if ordering that way so you know what you have but my question is to those whom do not care what breeds they have they want a diverse flock that all the birds look different, why not order what many hatcheries offer the leftovers of the hatches (thy set x many eggs subtract the least average number of birds that will likely hatch and sell those and any above that you can get at a slightly lower price it appears to be 5-10 cents per bird compared to the 25/50/75/100 price) Why i ask I realize you might order the special and get all of 1 or 2 breeds but for the difference in the inflated prices of the smaller # compared to the 25 intervals and boxing fees usually applied to such an order I have considered the assorted, not because I want lots of different but for the small discount realize its only a buck or two for me I have trouble understanding why someone would spend 20 dollars or more possibly to get essentially what I am thinking of getting. the only reason I am considering this assortment is because there are fewer breeds I don't want what so ever compared to the ones I want or are indifferent on do I want to save a buck or two since IDK what breed I get (I'm sure if I get a breed I'm not interested in or they become one I don't want they can be cooked the same as any roosters that are used as peanuts or wrongly sexed).
