What Time is It?
If you were planning to house your next pullets
“sometime after Christmas,” now’s the time to firm up
that order. Chicks hatching 3 weeks from now Will be
28 week old layers by Eastertime. Even if time slipped
by faster than you noticed and your preferred hatch
date is already passed, give us a call, it’s quite
possible we can match you up with some pullets
already started.
Anyway, isn’t it time we heard from you?
