What is the most you've ever spent on a chicken?

[RuffIedFeathers]

I'm just curious.
I like the idea of supporting small/quality breeders and not large scale hatcheries (not judging anyone who does though!)
The most I've spent so far was $59 for my straight run Deathlayers, which sadly turned out to ALL be roosters. Better luck next time I guess! lol

$30 for a day old Jubilee Orpington pullet chick.

She's been broody 4 times over the summer. I'm hoping she wants to hatch some eggs next April!

I paid $25 (or thereabouts) for a sexed fibromelanistic Easter Egger. She's gorgeous, and I hope to get some nice green eggs from her soon.

$35 for my polish hen!

 

[Artichoke Lover]

Like $3 each for day old BR and RIR lol.

21 on hatchery chicks, unfortunately non of them made it. The rest I either got for free or my parents bought them.

The most I’ve spent was about $5 on chicks but it adds up FAST!
