Product Overview
The City Town Female Special 3 from Cackle Hatchery® is designed for customers who need only a few pullets instead of a regular 15 to 25 chick minimum order. This special is a practical option for people who live in town, have limited coop space, cannot keep roosters, or only want a small backyard flock.
This special includes 3 pullets from the offered pullet list. The higher cost reflects the special shipping requirements needed to safely ship a small number of birds.
The chicks ship at 1 day of age and usually arrive at the customer’s post office at 2 to 3 days of age.
Pullet Selection and Sexing Accuracy
The City Town Female Special 3 includes pullets from the list of offered pullet options. Sexing is about 90% accurate, but it is not perfect. Customers should have a backup plan in case one chick turns out to be male.
For the best chance of avoiding a rooster, the Black Sex Link is a strong choice because sexing accuracy is about 99.5%.
Marek’s Vaccination and Shipping
This chick special includes free Marek’s vaccination.
Free shipping applies only to this special. If any other items are added to the order, shipping will be added to those items.
Backyard and City Flock Use
The City Town Female Special 3 is ideal for customers who want a small group of laying hens without ordering more chicks than they need. It works especially well for city or town chicken keepers who must follow local flock-size limits.
This special is a good fit for customers who want:
A small flock of 3 pullets
A city-friendly chick order
No intentional roosters
A few backyard laying hens
Free Marek’s vaccination
Free shipping on this special
Customers should check local chicken rules before ordering, especially if they live inside city limits or in a neighborhood with restrictions.
Arrival Care
Since this is a small chick order, proper brooder setup is important. Before chicks arrive, prepare a warm brooder with clean bedding, fresh water, chick starter feed, a safe chick waterer, and good ventilation without drafts.
Plan to pick chicks up quickly from the post office so they can get warm, drink, and eat as soon as possible.
