We have bought from him several times and have had great luck. We usually buy red and black sex links and barred rocks - we want egg production. You will need to call him ahead and order the ones you want. Hope this helps. www.nationwidecartparts.com 3rd Infantry Division 1st Infantry Division U.S. ARMY

Usually they go for 50 cents to a dollar each. I picked up 10 Cornish/Rock crosses for free last week, that a guy bought from Rural King for a buck each and grew out for 4 months. Their total weight was 142.29 pounds for an average weight of 14.22 pounds each. The largest cockrells weighed just under 17 pounds. Keith
