Selling Pullets?

[Chickeroonie keeper]

Hello all! After a recent fox attack that wiped out a lot of my hens, I turned to Hoover’s to get more chicks. However, I misjudged how many more chickens my current coop/run could fit. I would build/buy more space for them, but I’m not too handy, and can’t spend any more excess money right now.
So my question is, how much could/should I sell these pullets for? They’re all about 4 months old. I have the following breeds: Apenzellar spitzhauben, light Brahma, lavender orpington, salmon Faverolle, and this strange breed called “mystic onyx.”
Thanks in advance!

It depends on your local market. I can normally sell POL pullets easily for $20-25 but I'm in the metro Denver area. You already have $7-8 into each one of the common breeds. Sell the LOs for a premium.

All matters on what people will pay for them. I'm having trouble giving 5 and 6 month pullets away

Where I am, (close to Kansas city) its fairly easy to sell pullets about 3-4 months old for 25. Take very nice pictures of them and give ages. You can also put: They should be laying soon. That will grab peoples attention. If many people ask about them, and you tell them the price, but they don't respond, lower it about 5 dollars!

I just sold a small flock of Easter eggers, one rooster and 10 pullets, 5 months old, for $170. They're due to start laying soon. Both the buyer and me felt like we did well enough.

Central Texas, if the location helps.

Thanks everyone for the advice! I ended up selling them for $25 a bird. The buyers were so sweet, and I made sure they didn’t think it was too overpriced before selling

Great price! How many did you end up selling?

I’ve sold 8 so far. Maybe more in the not-too-distant future
