    Concerned: Has anyone ordered from Hoover's Hatchery?

    Chick(en) breed confusion

    I got a barnyard mix of 12 eggs from a seller on Amazon with good reviews. Most of the eggs were fertile and progressing until day 8/9 when the incubators cord came unplugged. According to their store page they're located in Alabama, which is the main reason I choose them since they were the...

    Bad Luck Bantams

    Yes, everyone's from Meyer since it's the only source for sexed bantams that I've been able to find. I have heard that some lines of Bielefelder are just not hardy, so it's possible that could explain her premature death (which is really sad, I'm so sorry). It's interesting you had luck with the...

    Concerned: Has anyone ordered from Hoover's Hatchery?

    Hey guys I've decided to get back into chickens again this spring, and I've just placed an order with Hoover's Hatchery.

    Silkie or did they play me?

    Thank you! I messaged her just to let her know, didn’t ask for a refund or anything like that. She got ruder when I left a yelp review. Oh well, deff not getting any more animals from AZ homestead & hatchery. I was just curious on what happened with this “silkie”.

    Starting over- Buckeyes, Swedish Flower, Speckled Sussex, Chocolate Orp,

    Yes the Australorps and French Marans are on my list. I'm a little hesitant with certain hatcheries due to the reviews. Previously some of my farm feed store chicks were purchased there and some didn't fair well. Also looking back at the Swedish Flower hens, more than half had a vaulted head...

    I was thinking about Meyer's, but their shipping price is super expensive😬 I think it's $50 if you only get a couple?

    Comment by 'Bound to Sea' in article 'Common Chicken Breeds That Lay Colored Eggs'

    Fun to read! Thanks! FYI, Girls hunt too, EE's and OE's are mentioned, even if hatcheries add their flare to the name as you listed in your comment/ review. Always new crosses coming out to sell them:D

    Any problems with chicks via USPS in Southeast?

    Chicks via the US Postal Service topic is widely covered, but I am wondering if anyone in Georgia (Southeast in general even) ordering chicks from afar are having trouble receiving live birds? 3 recent negative reviews of Meyer Hatchery from Tennessee claim dead and dying chicks, each claiming 3...

    Myers vs Meyers

    This is my first time buying day old chicks, (red sex link) online. I did a lot of research and it seems that Meyers is one of the most well known hatchery with good chickens. Unfortunately I bought my chicks from Myers thinking it was Meyers. Is Myers a good Hatchery? Has anyone raise their red...
