$$$What is the most expensive chicken you have brought or sold?$$$

[Pinky]

I got $3.00 each for two roosters. The most I've ever paid was $10.00 for my two australorps.

$5.50 for my cuckoo maran who was supposed to be a hen but turned out was a rooster. I really didn't care though cause he was my first standard size rooster for my hens, my other roosters were bantams.

I paid 25 for a nine mo. experienced BO rooster for my hens that were about the same age. I've had him for a month and so for he's real good with the girls and not any aggresive signs. He was very wary and shy when I first got him cause the previous owners alph EE roo beat him up every chance he got.

$15 for year old silkie(my first every laying bird!)

never had to sell any.

my birds ever bought were 3 bamtams (1 hen,2 roos) in an aution at a show

 

[heathersboers]

$100 for a silver sussex roo- 2 months old.....

$15.00 apiece for two POL Lakenvelders. Other than two bantam cochins from someone who needed (???) to get rid of chicks, for which I paid $5.00 apiece, I've never bought anything other than feed store chicks and shipped hatching eggs. ALMOST paid $30.00 for 8 eggs once, but somebody outbid me.

I don't sell mine; I give some away to local BYCers. Well, to ONE, and to one other in a few days. I might be able to expand that "service" eventually.

$15 is no longer the most I have paid.

Just bought a $50 pair of black Bantam Cochins ! Totally worth it.
