    Tried raising them "Corn and Soy FREE"

    IT DID NOT WORK. I was feeding my meaties tonight and thinking they should be a bit bigger by now.. Came inside and realized their set butcher date (8 weeks) was May 29th! WHOOPS. I need them to catch up.. FAST. Ideas? This was taken June 5th. They are maybe 1 or 2 pounds?

    Welp Hatchery

    Just ordered 25 meaties... and realized no where on their site or my receipt does it say an approximate ship date. Anyone know if they are booked far out or if orders are quick right now? Anyone who ordered recently? How long did it take for your meaties to arrive? Thanks!
