399. About two months ago I sold 60, 6 month old pullets for $10 apiece. |

I put an ad in the paper and they all sold within 3 days. We advertised them specifically for laying hens.We brooded out the chicks, kept what we wanted for our own layers, and sold the rest. I even sold a few cockerels when people came to pick up the pullets. I usually sell my older hens (ones that have been laying for over a year) for $5 each because they will continue to lay for several more years. When I have had old OLD hens and roosters I've sold them for 50 cents each for whoever wants to come get them for butcher. I NEVER have a problem getting rid of chickens. Once we butcher what we need, the rest disappear as fast as folks can come get them.
