Thanks for the input. I'm new to chickens, but when I was looking for started SLW pullets, I couldn't find them anywhere. The hatcheries had started red stars and black stars for about $13 each, plus shipping. That's what I based my price on. I got these girls as day old chicks from a nearby hatchery. A friend and I split the minimum order, and I fortunately ended up with extra pullets. I'm not looking to make money on these girls, price is negotiable if they go to an excellent home. Anyone in the western suburbs looking to join the backyard chicken trend? They've been laying perfect brown eggs for about two weeks now.
