Which would be better an evening during the week or the weekend?

Well, it would just depend lol. I don't USUALLY have anything going on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays

I had a question I've been looking around but cant seem to find a solid answer. How much would a chicken that just started laying sell for?

I've seen them on craigslist for anywhere from $5-$25

There is no solid answer. If it's a member of BYC, it can be free or five dollars. If you want money, it can be up to twenty.

It's a case of my neighbors son has a new husky, that he decided he was going to let run. I guess I don't have to point out where the story is going. I was wondering about what I should ask for. The worst part is after he grabbed the dog, he set it back down again and it took off and got another one.......

If that's the case. Check mypetchicken and see how much a POL pullet in that breed is selling for.

Aww, I'm so sorry! I know all too well how that feels except it was our own husky, 3 weeks after bringing home our first chicks. We lost every one of them to her that day. She's never been trusted unsupervised around any chickens again. She's 11 years old now and well still try to get them with any chance she has.

It's rough. I got them as little peeps. Have raised them and cared for them for this long on top of that this is my first flock ever. So I guess I'm alittle more attached that I should be.

In that case, $20 -$30. Maybe more for Aneraucana or CCL. Mutt chickens lay like crazy, so they are still twenty plus.

Btw, if you want, it is a legal matter. The neighbors will get a fine if you report their failure to control the dog.

Maybe tentatively plan for a Tuesday in Ebensberg? As they tend to do stupid things with the roads around these parts over the weekends.

I appreciate the response. They were Gold laced Cochins and Black Australorps. I could only hope for some CCL or Ameraucanas. Maybe that is what I will look to replace them with next spring. Another question that just popped into my head. I have a rooster. He isn't really pretty, in my mind, he isn't aggressive at all which is nice but, would a good rooster have attacked the dog to protect his flock? Cause my rooster is perfectly okay, he did nothing. Are my expectations of what a rooster should do exaggerated? Or am I alittle justified in naming him Souper today? And if I do find a rooster that would protect the flock would I have to be concerned about him being aggressive towards my family?
