I hope none.
I hate the idea of people buying pets just for holidays.
I can't tell you how many people I've heard of buying bunnies for Easter, because they thought it'd be a real cute gift for their significant other or child, and then they get bored of it. Yeah, it's cute, but it's work. Chicks fall into the same category.
Animals are not a novelty item.

When I managed an Exotic Bird store, we had all handfed babies (except for the budgies and the finches). We would sell them before they were weaned, but the person buying an unweaned baby had to come in every day and learn to feed the baby properly. We would not allow it to go to its new home before it reached a certain weight (different for each species) and before the new owner was comfortable with feeding it...and WE were confident that they were trained well enough. Getting a baby bird to raise is a big commitment, as the bird's life is literally dependent on you. You must feed it properly, and at the right times. You can't decide you are going to go hang out with your friends instead of feeding the baby bird. Baby chickens and ducks are easier, as they are precocial - they don't get fed by the parent bird, or handfed by a human. But they still need lots and lots of care and the proper feed. If you are looking for a chicken, try a farm or a local farm/feed store. If you are looking for a baby bird like a parrot or a budgie, try any pet store.

Stores haven't sold chicks for Easter in decades. People would get them for the day and then let them die. If you have researched their care and are prepared to keep them as pets, then you should look up local farms in your area. Otherwise, stick to chocolate.

I am not sure about pet stores (look some up on google), but there are breeders and farm providers that will ship some to you. They are not to expensive. And they have all their shots/

You don't want a baby chicken unless you are well prepared to care for it! Chicken care is not easy, it's expensive and also time consuming.
