Hello from Stouffville

Hello all! We finally moved out to a larger property and I can finally get chickens. I've been researching for years and have convinced the rest of the family. I'm hoping to get some started birds instead of day olds, so that I will be less likely to get roosters. I've looked at some local hatcheries, but they either beak trim or you need to order a lot of chicks. Still looking around and was very happy to find this board!

:welcome: to PTO. :cow: :chicken peck:

Check out Frey's Hatchery in St. Jacobs, they sell or used to sell day old sexed chicks. Haven't bough from them in a long time so not sure if this is useful information??
