I always used Ideal Poultry because I live in Texas, they are located in Texas, shipping is less, and I get my chicks within a day. If there is a specific breed that I want, I order them, but sometimes when I want a variety, I order the Heavy Assorted Breeds. Ideal always list the breeds that I get and the number. Ideal was out when i ordered my last batch so I used Cackle and ordered the mixed assorted heavy breed. They did not list the breeds so I do not know what I have until they are almost grown and the shipping was high.
