The problem in Tina's case, I guess, is she doesn't want it to infect
her others if there is anything that can be passed on.


It's that too, but it's more that I don't want a dud.


Well, yes, but Janet was talking about being told to keep the dud and the
replacement both.

These are young POL
pullets and 18.99 is expensive for one that may never do well. 2 will not
be enough to provide my family with eggs.


Was there any particular reason for the price being so high? Have they
gone up so muchin the last year or so? Or is it the only supplier near
you? Or is there something 'special' about them?
