Meyers Rocks!!

An empty-nester with an adorable hubby, a 23 year old son, 2 dogs and a bunch of chickens.  I had chickens for years, but that was long ago so am just now getting back into them and enjoying every minute.

I just got 4 pullets & a rooster from Meyer Hatchery. I added the rooster later as an afterthought & they gave me no problem about it. The chicks all arrived healthy & are doing very well. I really like that you can order small numbers of chicks from them, not all of us want 25 chicks at a time.

I also have Royal Palm Turkeys, India Blue peacocks, & several colors of Guineas. I have a tiny little Yorkie, a Mal-Shi, two Great Pyrenees, & lots of cats.

Just got off the phone with Myers. They are going to replace the chicks that were lost through no fault of their own.  Such great customer service!!jumpy

I love Meyer, their customer service members went above and beyond to help me when I had a health issue (auchan actually wasn't, she was just deadly constipated, but alive and fine now). I lost a chick 3 days after delivery and they still credited me even though it was outside of their 48 hour live guarontee. Everyone is healthy, happy and thriving. I cannot say enough nice things about them and I'm glad you ordered from them. Fantastic place. I will be ordering from them again.

1 husband, 1 son, 1 daughter, 1 cat, 3 dogs, 6 ducks, 7 turkeys, too many chickens of all ages and stages, and bunches of fish... Do you wonder why I'm nutts?

SO glad to hear all this love for Meyers!  I ordered in June and my six new babies will be delivered next week.  I thought they were wonderful to deal with on the phone.  I"m sure it won't be my last order with them!

Are your chicks coming tomorrow?  I got mine on Wednesday when they shipped on Monday.  Meyer sends an e-mail when they ship.
