Started Chicks
I sell started chicks for $25.00 each. They are 6 to 8 weeks old and they are sexed. I normally ship Priority but will ship Expresss upon request, but it is more expense to the buyer. I use Bio Secure boxes, specially made for shipping poultry. These boxes have gone up in price since I last ordered them. Unfortunately, I need to pass that cost on to the customer. They now cost $10.00 each and I attach the hole coverings myself. At the age of 6 to 8 weeks, we can put two chicks in a box comfortably, with a divider that I make. Once they get a little older, they need more room in their box. I usually put cedar shavings in the bottom, corn-on-the-cob and/or apple pieces in for their moisture and food needs during the trip. The cost to ship one box is just under $20.00.
2 chicks - $50.00
1 bio-secure box - $10.00
Priority shipping - $20.00
Total - $80.00
