HAVE WE BEEN RIPPED OFF?

crikey!! i have 4 hybrids and i paid £12 each from a local breeder, he also supplies feed and all bedding, feeders etc at reasonable prices.

Hi Jaqui,

I think we used the same breeder! Is the name of his business a fruit tree?!

I think I must have been lucky. I paid a tenner for 3 welsummers @ 7 weeks old.
I realise that buying Point-of-Lay chickens would be more expensive, due to the feeding and care for a few months more.
A couple of farms round here charge £12.50 and £16 for various Point-of-Lay hybrids.

I'm in Oxfordshire and we paid £10 each for our Light Sussex, Black Rock and Cotswold Blacktail Point-of-Lay hens a few weeks ago.

I believe they have gone up to £11 each now

However, we normally have ex-batts which are a proper bargain!
