I just picked up 99 chick's at our local rural king for .50 each.

They started at 3.50..then she dropped to a dollar..then I told her I'd take em all for .50 each.lol

Jerry says I'm crazy but I ain't.

Im keeping some and selling some

I have cuckoo marans, buff orphingtons,partridge rocks, rustic rocks bielveliders California tans, and a few brahma.

99 in total.

I'm happy happy happy...jerry...not so much!

Has the chicken rush subsided a bit?

I've heard of side-hustles involving chicks. Good for you Cathryn!

Poor Jerry. And yet he always seems to be smiling…at least on the outside.

Yes. The rush here has subsided but I don't think I can go wrong at .50 each.

I've got a day a week work lined up to pay for my feed.lol

Just call me a hen.pimp..lmao!

He.sa8d he has to smile.to keep from strangling me.lol

Im excited to get home and get em in their pens.

He said im nuts but I am SO excited.

Im.gonna keep some and sell some

I think you done good but forgive me I gotta ask- will you market them as tariff free?

Hen pimp that's way nice you should make out pretty good on that deal, lots of eggs and lots of butcher chicks, awesome!!

There's usually a few roosters in a bunch like that.
So you'll have some chicken dinners also.

How fun is that?!

Be the best 50 bucks you’ve spent in a while.

you did great I would have bought them all as well. I love geting them.whrh the are getin big and they mark them down. Often they are fully feathers and can go outside and it's a few less weeks of feed cost and cleaning uo after them when they are not as small. Win win in my book.

At least in Ohio, the high demand for chickens and quail to produce eggs has died hard. Cheap and even free chickens are readily available now, as are quail. Many of the new keepers have decided keeping layers is smelly and too much work. The market is currently very flooded. I went from selling out every week to not selling much at all the last 3 weeks. This was by far the slowest weekend of the year for chick sales for us.

Interesting. I've been trying to buy half a dozen or so chicks from Tractor Supply for a couple months now. They told me they sell out within 2 hours of receiving them. I checked yesterday... all they had were a few ducks. Guess I'll have to pull out the ol incubator.

Keep smiling chick lady, we love your enthusiasm and drive.......jk

These are feathered out. They went straight into my outside chick pens..no changing paper.

I'll sell a few now as chick's and raise most out.

The came to 53.00 and.some.change..I was gonna buy 40 for 40 so I thought 13 more for an extra 59 chicks was a steal.lol

I have had no death loss as of yet

Our tractor supply and the feed store had chick's that were feathered out to the other day.

We're on the way now to our local livestock sale barn. They're having a caged animal sale today
.which usually is poultry and rabbits.

Well see what we can buy

We're at the auction now.

Jerry gave me the bidders number card.

I love bidding. It's a thrill.

Jerry get tight sometimes.lol

Were fixing to have some full let ya know what we buy.

Okay, it’s been long enough. Let us know what you bought.

Catherine, did a big guy named Levi just buy the rabbits and chickens at the auction you went to. He contacted me about buying a bunch he just picked up.
