The birds that Shook sells come from his supplier already debeaked. He has no choice in the matter.
Just a note: Shook poultry and Murray's hatchery are less then half a mile apart. Until this year I loved getting chicks from Shook. I wish they would go back to selling chicks next...

yeah the debeaked thing turned me off too. I thought it was an unecessary feature. I prefer mine with a beak. We plan to look in to Murrays Hatchery on 70 its right at the edge of Claremont going towards Catawba.
I've never heard of Shooks and I've lived in Claremont since 2006... That is about 5 min from my house lol... I mapped it. They only sell started pullets and barred rock chicks now.

Try Shooks Poultry in Claremont, NC. They provide four or five breeds of 'Started Pullets'. Very reasonably priced at about $6.50 each for 18 week old pullets. I got 19 Gold Comets from them last spring and they have been the very best layers ever! They started laying at 22 weeks...
