MARANTHA!! Even so, come LORD JESUS!!!
Have any of you all noticed the MASSIVE price increase in day old chicks at the hatcheries??? I was planning to get my regular 50 chick, brown egg layer assortment, but they have not only DOUBLED in price, but most have TRIPLED!!!
Considering the HUGE cost of feed also, I just don't know if it is worth it!!! But then, WHAT can match a home grown fried egg in flavor.....guess I will really BITE the bullet and get them anyway!! Looked at hatching eggs, but they are OUTRAGEOUS in price and no guarantees AT ALL there!
I guess before I buy any at all, I will wait and price them at the sale barn here in town ...no guarantees THERE either though, and possible MORE risk!! I see pullets are about TEN TIMES what they were at the hatcheries too!! UNREAL!!!
