Any thoughts on Murray Mcmurray hatchery? I have an order coming in a few weeks. Very excited!
Any tips for when they arrive?

I have ordered 3 times from MMcM and every time I have received a bird. I did NOT say a chick! The first time we got a really sweet mallard duck; the second time we got a BEAUTIFUL chicken ( I am not sure what type it is) whose toes fell of because of frostbite (so she lived in the house for a while), and then we got a male polish. So it varies.
Your free rare exotic chick will almost always be an Easter Egger cockerel
Other than that, they're a great hatchery. My go-to place to order chicks. Healthy birds, good customer service.
I had a similar case where all the toes fell off, not at once.. It was not due to frostbite because my chickens stay indoors during winter and outdoors when warm. Hen was a mix of serama and cochin with feathered feet. Lived 7 to 8 years and lost to predator.,BEAUTIFUL chicken ( I am not sure what type it is) whose toes fell of because of frostbite (so she lived in the house for a while), and then we got a male polish.
