Its cheaper to get it from rodent pro, 25cents each

[birdboy92]

but the shipping is way more at rodent pro

[Falcon Boy]

True, but you have to be close enough to pick those little guys up

Na....just like 6 months ago had 50 shipped to me, and I picked them up at the nearest pos office.....you order them, select a shipping date, and wait for them, then the post office gives you a call and you go pick them up

You can usually find them cheaper at closer hatcheries. Do a search and you will find a few. I buy all my ducks and geese from Metzer Farms in Cali and Ideal Hatchery in Texas for chickens. They generally have better shipping to Utah.

As for killing them, in reptiles we use C02. Just a chunk of dry ice will do it.

I just order from RodentPro and they deliver them directly to me. They come to Columbus, Ohio once a month for a reptile show. Thus, I just meet them out front in the morning and they have everything already boxed up. I get the internet pricing and don't have to pay shipping. I actually order for other Ohio falconers and hold their orders for them. Unfortunately, with GRIM's success this year, I'm quickly running out of freezer space.

Forgot to mention, they're located near Indianapolis, IN and also go to shows in Cleveland and Kansas City monthly.

from where?

[SkyRider]

I'd also like to know where you get those from. If you could PM me the details, that'd be great.

The ones in the original post are not Day Old Chicks.......fully feathered birds smaller than Cornish game hens.....I'd prefer DOC's...

[Modoc]

i just found a hatchery with day old chicks $15 for a hundred live. i will have to dry ice them.

Here in Southern California we used to get all our DCO's from Highland Hatchry out behind Lake Perris. They used to sell them for 20 cents a piece a;ready killed. Now they sell them alive for somewhere around 25 cents each and you have to kill them yourself.

I just got a bag of 100, dead and frozen. FREE.
It's all who you know.
