I'm tempted to do it just because I'm so eager to start my flock... we just finished building the coop and I've been looking for hens for over a week without luck. $8 - $10 seems normal here for 2 year old hens (except for the lady who thought she could get $35 each lol). Maybe I should wait though.
I talked my husband into letting me get chicks (hooray!) on the condition that we'll get a few adult silkies first (a type he wants anyway) and let them go broody and give them the chicks to raise. I should hold out for that, but I have no patience when I'm excited!
