 Why California Pet Shops and Ag Stores don't have any baby layers (chicks) to sell right now?

 

Every spring California Pet Shops and Ag Stores sell baby chicks to customers raising chickens in their backyards or at small farms.  This year I have been calling Ag Stores in our area for almost a month, only to find out they still do not have any baby layers to sell.  Why?  Because many of these Ag Stores and Pet Shops get their chicks supply from hatcheries located in Texas.  Texas had a freak snowstorm in February that disrupted shipping operations and hurt Texan farms and hatcheries in multiple ways.  Many hatcheries ended up killing the baby chicks that had just come of the eggs but could not shipped to Ag Stores around the country.
