Answers:
Most pet adoption places charge the adopter the fee to spay/neuter the pet about 50 to 75 dollars. Some charge the person dropping them off too. Go to a no kill shelter if you can. Petsmart and the other big one have pet adoptions on saturdays and they maybe able to help you out
Good luck.
Maybe $50
If you're asking how much it will cost to get them fixed, there are low-cost spay/neuter clinics in most cities that charge about $30 each. Google "low cost neuter clinic".

If you're asking how much you should charge ppl to adopt them...well, the shelters usually charge about $100 and that is for kittens that are fixed, have their shots, sometimes even microchipped. You might have trouble adopting kittens out if you charge too much. Maybe charge whatever it cost you to get them fixed, and let people know that so they don't think you are just trying to make money.
Probably around $50 - $75 I would think. It can get expensive to spay and neuter. I would charge the cost of the spay/neuter plus maybe $10 extra. If you hve trouble rehoming them as quickly as you would like, try lowering the price. The pet stores are charging around $150 for kittens and all they come w/is their first shots, and no neuter or spay.
Kudos to you for taking the responsibility to spay/neuter the kittens before adopting them out!
I know from expereince , often getting an animal fixed, is the last thing on peoples mind when they accept a new kitten into their family, and then later they come to regret it w/unwanted pregnancies, or cats that go into heat and run away. Best of luck to you in rehoming your kittens!
If you plan on spaying/neutering everyone, and have them up to date on shots, as well, you can probably get around $50-80 for them.

Our rescue's adoption fee for the cats/kittens is $80. Some people think that's ''outrageous'' for an animal (not the type of people we care to adopt to, anyways!), and others realize what a good deal that is, for a healthy pet that's up to date on vaccinations %26 altered.
If I recall correctly, I think the humane society adopts out fixed kittens for near $100.
Are you going to wait a while to adopt them out?? 2 weeks is wayyyy too young. I do believe you're supposed to wait til they are about 6-8 weeks old.
it depends on the breed
