    Cackle hatchery's Hatchery Surprise- Anybody got this before?

    I've noticed people are putting requests, or likes/dislikes as far as breeds go with the Surprise. Has anyone noticed whether Cackle pays attention to these requests or not? I am ordering the Surprise next week and would like only chickens no turkeys or ducks.... Thanks

Plus I did try a show quality pair of light Brahmas and time after time buyers would buy the $2 mutts instead of my $4 pure Brahmas which were even older.

    Sneezing birds, one with nasal discharge...cause for alarm?

    I had the same problem a few weeks back, and the majority response I got was coryza and/or MG. to prevent further spreading, I put down all birds showing the symptoms. Probably a little drastic, but I don't have the time/money to medicate. I did give the rest of my flock Duramycin for a couple...
