    Hatchery Policies. Acceptable or Not Acceptable?

    I've always left them a message on their recorder and they've always called me back. I've had mixed experiences on my survival rates from them but they've always been friendly and professional.

    9wk Shetland Hens: male or female?

    Just curious what you ladies' experience has been with the Shetland's? Someone told me they are frail and weak but I don't want to believe that since I really want to get some, but the truth is best either way. It would be great to hear about them from a real owner.

    I think Ideal Poultry sold me tons of roosters and I paid for all pullets

    So what's the prognosis with your chicks- mostly boys or girls, how did it work out? Kudos to you posting on here, I gave up a long time ago...as there are waaaay too many know-it-alls and other peeps with waaaaay too much time on their hands. Peace

    Just Joined Central Valley CA

    Hello, I just saw your post. I'm from the central valley too, close to Kingsburg. I share with you in the pain of keeping chickens during the NON-STOP rains we had from December of 2022 all the way to what, like April of 2023?! Heck, we had the Tulare lake come back.

    Tell that to grandma and grandpa with their 1 box of screws that just want to get through the line so they can get home and repair their gate and then eat their peaches and cottage cheese. Or the husband, wife or single mom on their lunch break. Some of you people have seriously lost all sense...
