2023 TSC Chick Prices

sold out of the small chick waterers. Of all things.

I had trouble getting basic supplies when I started in 2020

I just got back from one, no chicks. But my tsc I don't care for the employees they are rude and dismissive. I rarely buy from them. I got back into quail so although there is an uptick on price for eggs, it's about the same and I get a better return on my money. People impulse buy then realize the cost and upkeep keeping chickens. I expect to see for sales by summer. When that dz eggs cost you $200 before the birds start to lay, most will bale out.

Speaking of empty, they were out of pine flakes the day before yesterday.

I got pine flakes from Blains Fleet farm delivered for 7.99 so I ordered five big blocks. It was the best purchase I could have made!

7.99 including delivery or 7.99 was the delivery fee? Just not clear of what you're saying.

I stopped at the local TSC. They had straight run chicks, and straight run ducks. I asked when they'd get more chicks, and the guy said he didn't know, usually Monday or Tuesday. I asked about pullets and he said they sell out of those as fast as they can get them.

Really sounds like my plan of fall chicks is gonna work out best for me. I'll just sit back and let all the new people get their inflation chicken now.

$7.99 total shipping, so I ordered a bunch of them. Then they just came to my house. No worries.

Ended up at a different TSC today. They had pearl leghorns, Marans, and “Americanas”. They were $5.49. I think most of them were around the $3 range last year.

And no, I did not buy any. I resisted. Clearly because I just started the Easter HAL.

SW Neb here. Not TSC but my local Orshelns has RIR 4.29, EE, SLW, and black sex links 3.99. Cornich cross 2.99

TSC on Virginia's Eastern Shore $4.49 for barred rock pullets, "Ameracuana" pullers, and Olive Eggers. Not too bad. FYI just paid $2.29 for jumbo white eggs at Food Lion.

I got there an hour before they were ready to sell (because we drove down the day before, the lady I spoke with on the phone told me chicks would be in) in but had to wait 24 hours t ok sell. I think if I'd of just called I may have received a different answer. We got our 4 chicks, now we have to wait to see if there are all girls!!
