wanting baby chicks

[Andi4chics]

Hello. I am wanting to purchase just a few baby chicks to have as pets. I have not raised them before, but recently moved to a place with a barn! I am excited to begin this adventure. I want to purchase from an Ohio farm, I would like to have all hens.
Please contact me asap. These chckens will be loved for life!
