Hey guys, what would you charge for turkey poults? I have someone in the area who is interested in my babies, and she is willing to wait until they are naturally separated from the mother. $10 a poult? I figure they will be around 8 weeks old or so. This is assuming I can let them go...

I just sold 4 of my hens this morning to a guy I got the sick bantam cochin from. He wanted a few layers that were already producing. I know he just wanted more eggs for his wife and new baby. So I decided to part with my girls. I know I will have more to replace them soon between the incubator and my broodies. He seems to care about his flock and I knew they would have a good home.

Tons more....Pickering Valley is getting way more than that...though they are sexed.....
 
GM all:

Put my four young'ins outside today....(first outing)....they refused to move and were totally intimidated by the big girls in the adjacent pen....if they aren't complaining too bad at dusk, they'll stay out overnight...

Ditto on what Auroradream said. They go for ten to fifteen as day-olds at the Clearfield bird swaps. A few years ago, a guy couldn't even get out of his vehicle before his were all sold!

If you hear of any Clearfield swaps, let me know! I don't head up there often since Rural king moved in but I'm going to have lots of poults and peeps to sell this year. Gotta save up for our trip in July!

Silkied lav ams!?  So neat.  Are they as big as regular LF Ameraucanas, or are they (and their eggs) smaller because of the silkie blood?  Do you have any pics?  

I wish I could take Lav Am eggs or chicks, but we don't want to become public enemy #1 in the neighborhood by getting roosters again.  I would pay more for juvenile/adult stock, if it were available.  Or, if there were a return program available for chicks who turned out to be boys, I might be able to talk my husband into taking the chance with me....  I know you only generally grow out the birds you plan to keep, but if you ever happened to find yourself with more hens than you want, I'll be here! ;)  I'm jealous of everyone here who can hatch eggs and keep roos!

They are standard LF ameraucana sized. I got mine originally from @Dheltzel. I believe that he said that there's no silkie blood in them and that the feathering happened genetically? Don't quote me on that one. I may have misunderstood. If you ended up with boys, I'm sure i could take them back, but i can't promise a happy ending for them...
