Meyer hatchery - Page 2

One thing I'll say about Meyer is they are honest about the birds they sell.  Some hatcheries show the best breeder quality chickens as their display then send you a dozen hatchery quality.  The pictures on Meyer website were pretty spot on to the birds I got from them.  All of my birds arrived healthy and happy.  Overall I was pleased with them.

Thanks for all your posts on Meyers.  I've been debating on placing an order with them.  Plus I'm only in MIchigan, which should make for a quick shipment of peepers.

I will be ordering my chicks from meyer hatcher and I live in michigan as well xD 

Is anyone else concerned about the new supplement Meyer is giving chicks before shipping?  It's called Oasis and the first ingredient is soy.  Of course, that means GMO soy.  I cancelled my order with them and am buying from Hoovers Hatchery.  It ended up even being $3 cheaper on 25 chicks.

Thats doesnt bother me one bit. But what does bother me is that I lost 5 Meyer chicks in 48 hours and zero chicks from Ideal (which was delivered the day after the Meyer chicks). When I called to let them know of the 1 DOA chick the lady was super nice but when I called at the 48 hour day to tell them about the 4 chicks that had died since getting here the lady was kinda snotty and acted like I was lying. I took pics of the dead chicks and offered to email them to her and but she didnt want it. She ended up crediting my account the cost for 3 fry pan specials and not the 2 golden lakenvelders and 3 fry pans. So basically I lost money. In the future I will go with Ideal or TSC.  To me customer service is everything. I could care less about GMO foods.
