First you should decide what type of egg layer you want. There are colorful birds or just white, different sizes and some are better for cold areas of the country.

These are places where you might look for the hens:

  • Craig's List or other market sheet to find the birds locally.
  • In the spring some feed and hardware stores will sell chicks.
  • Many counties will have poultry auctions during the warm months.
  • Look on the internet for hatcheries offering chicks to the public. They list their prices, their guarantees, have a customer service for questions during normal working hours, and will schedule the mailing through USPS as close as they can to your convenience.
