Baby chicks on red heat lamp |
Most of the front is clothes and snacks and junk like that. I moved quickly toward the garden section my mission to buy a bag of 12% sweet feed to have on hand when Bramble calves next month. As I rounded the corner of the isle headed for the feed racks I ran smack dab into baby chicks for sale.
Red New Hampshire and Black Jersey Giant |
You could buy straight run (girls and boys mixed) or just pullets (girls). There was one pen of mixed Bantam chicks. The pullets cost $1.99 each which is competitive with the catalogs.
They looked healthy so I went looking for a sales person and picked out three New Hampshire's and three black Jersey Giants. They are now at home in my chicken brooder in the furnace room with a red heat lamp on them which is why the pictures are red. The cats are shut out of the furnace room and they are totally bamfoozled! The chicks have made it through their first night so I am hoping to raise all six with no problems.
