[QUOTE="Susie David, post: 552752, member: 1744"] We've been running a small egg business for a couple of years now, not going to finance a new pick-up but they pay for themselves and give Susie some pin money (She sells twelve dozen a week at work) and we have more off-farm orders then the gals can keep up with and a thers has been a few days where we didn't have enough for ourselves. We have thirty new pullets that were just introduced to the flock, takes a few weeks to establish their position in the pecking order but expect they should start laying any time now. Plan on ordering another 50 this fall and brood in the barn for spring production. Expect 3% roosters from a pullet order, got three in our last order but usually only one or two. Alot of fun and not all that hard to keep...hen house mucking out is never fun but makes great compost. DMc [/QUOTE]
