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

    My wife has a bantam coop that houses her 11 "personal pets" - a mix of cochins, cresteds, one silkie, 2 Sebrights and 2 OEGs. She can go in there and set on her stool and she becomes a human perch! They just swarm her! LoL Except....there is one bantam of hers - a Light Brahma - she has only...

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

    Yeah, they do tend to scatter when I first go in, but they come around if I stay a while. There are always some that are friendlier than others. Sometimes you get one or two that never do warm up to people - always skiddish - just the nature of the chick. And yes, my chicks grow fast! LoL - my...

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

    Yes, they all arrived healthy and vigorous! One chick actually passed away the first night - but I'm not sure why. The remaining 58 are energetic and seem to be fine! (In spite of the 2-day trip from Missouri to Texas)! I didn't make any special request - just ordered the special. I was also...

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

    Just an update - I did receive my surprise box yesterday! It had 59 baby chicks in it! All the chicks seem to be standard size and all of them are clean legged variety. I can't speculate on specific breeds for most of them just yet, BUT almost half are crested breeds - a favorite of my wife and...

    Wrong Chicks Sent - Stromberg's & Privett

    Just wondering if this is typical of hatchery's nowadays? I didn't order from Privett hatchery directly - I ordered from Stromberg's. It was actually cheaper to go thru Stromberg's as opposed to ordering directly from Privett Hatchery. (Stromberg's is NOT a hatchery - just a broker for birds...

    Privett hatchery

    Well I didn't order from Privett hatchery directly - I ordered from Stromberg's. However Stromberg's is NOT a hatchery - just a broker for birds. They forward your order to the nearest hatchery for order filling/shipping......hence Privett Hatchery for me. I received 24 very healthy and vibrant...
