Hello all,

Are you wanting nice fresh eggs?
I have got Hyline chicks/pullets for sale .

These chicks were hatched on Tuesday the 7th of July, and were 6 weeks old on the 18th of August

I regularly obtain bulk day old chicks and raise them up to sell.

Please feel free to contact me on 0212284853 or email me on joanne.hoyle67@gmail.com

These are guaranteed to be all hen chicks and are vaccinated against mareks & salmonella.

These chicks have NOT been de-beaked


The hyline chicken has been bred to be a better laying bird, friendlier & healthier also. these have been proven to be better layers than the average chicken, laying over 320 eggs per year.


There is no visual difference between brown shavers and hylines except hylines are slightly smaller. they both lay same size eggs. the hyline doesn't eat as much food and are known to be more hardy during the winter. hylines are also more docile.


Hylines start laying at about 18 weeks old but are only at 9% of production. by the time they are 22 weeks old, they are at 89% of production. by the time they are 24 weeks old they are at 96% production which is about the best you could get from any hen.

Review:

"I would just like to say that I purchased 10 chickens today and am very pleased with them, they would be the best chickens for their age that I have ever bought, fat, healthy and so quiet." Wendy J.

Price: $16
