If you're going to sell them you might want to learn how to spell the breed correctly....it's Cuckoo Marans. Speckled Sussex and Welsummers are not hard to find breeds. Good ones are, but many hatcheries sell them. I hope you're telling your customers that they may not get the dark eggs from the Marans and welsummers since a lot of hatchery stock don't lay dark eggs like the breed is supposed to.

So the way you continue to avoid my question I'll take that as it's a projected figure and not money in your pocket.


I just saw this part of the thread.......and no, I'm not the spell checker, but if you're going to sell the birds you should at least know how the breed name is spelled.....

I don't have show stock never said I did...never have shown and have no plans to. I just like my birds to look like the breed they are.

No, I don't believe you've gotten that much in one month...no matter whether it was barter or cold hard cash.

I've had chickens for most all of my life (soon to be 57 years). I've never had them to turn a profit...I have them because I enjoy them. When they help pay the feed bill for the month that's great.

You could at least get my name right......

I don't use used cartons for my eggs.....you never know where the freebies you get have been.

Apparently selling chickens and real estate have one thing in common, LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!

I'm in a very rural area, four hours from any major metropolitan area. Apparently, that makes all the difference in the world!
