    Hatchery sending extras?

    If you liver close to Texas, I suggest Ideal Poultry. Their minimum is $25.00 and no packing peanuts. I have used Meters and Whelp and love them, but the minimum is so many birds when I only want 10. Shipping is very reasonable and the closer to Texas then there is only a boxing fee.

    Best hatchery to order from?!

    Ideal Poultry in Cameron Texas has a $25.00 minimum order so you don't have to order a full 25 if your just wanting a few of certain breeds. I order from them at least 3 times a year and they are all healthy and lively straight out the box. If there are issues they will refund or replace.
