How was the sale in M-boro today? About how many chicken sellers were there, and what was selling and for how much?

You know I didn't ask prices really. I didn't need to buy. We had a guy right next to us with pairs and started pullets. His prices seemed ok for what he had. I think there were 3, me, the guy next to me and a guy with a flat bed trailer full of birds, duck, and chicks. I didn't really see many people buy chickens. I only sold to 4 people, I know the guy next to me sold some, cuz he was pulling more out to sell. We got there later than we should have, but getting up at 6 was enough for me.... it was about 9 when we got there.

That is a HUGE Co-op! and Nice too.
 
Donna - Thanks for the eggs! I'm going to move the hen and get her set up in a small coop on her own tomorrow evening. I'll keep you updated.

Do let me know how it goes.... I don't think you will get a ton of chicks. I told your wife she would be ok.... Only a few would hatch and 1/2 will be roos you can get rid of pretty soon when you know the roos. You have to hatch more than you need.... kinda the rules of 1/2, 1/2 will hatch and 1/2 will be roos.... but with the SLW that will not be true..... GOOD LUCK!

I put eggs under my broodies today too..... I had them in the shop with some no good SLW eggs and they were sticking with it so..... BCM are under both of them now. One pullet had some cold eggs

Hello everyone!!!!! I am positive no one remembers me but I was on here up until the Army had us move to Germany. I had to let my girls go (super sucked) and was forced into stairwell housing. After being in purgatory for about 2 years I am going back to Tennessee!! We just bought home w/an acre in Dover......and it has the perfect shed which is BEGGING to be transformed into a coop! :D

Anyhow, I will go back to lurking until the big move in May. I just wanted to say HI! (I couldn't stand it anymore!)
