Sometimes though they just think they don't want them until somebody else tells them they do want them.
That's what happened with the ACs and some of the other "rare" breeds.
They came on the scene and they were different then people started seeing the prices and couldn't shut up about them...
That was just for the first couple 2 or 3 years.
Prices here now are similar to the other poster. Just saw some chicks for $10, cockerels for $30, pullets for $50
