    I have to vent! Disaster AGAIN!?

    Sorry about the loss I have to agree with the above poster, take a break from hatching and chickies until your schedule clears. You'll do better then. What type of rooster is that in your avatar? I have a rooster just like that and have no clue what he is.

    A BIG "Thumbs Up" to McMurray Hatchery!!

    Ordered for the first time with them last week, my chicks we're due to be here tomorrow; instead, they showed up yesterday. All 26 of them! Everything was what I ordered (I think since I'm so green at all of this I let them put in a "rare" breed. Though, one of my partridge rocks has only...
