Meyer is my go-to.
Got my order in this morning and I was so excited when I heard the little peeps walking into that post office. First order I've ever had shipped from Meyer (3rd order) and I'm still a little weary. Not because of Meyer but because of the USPS.
Everyone arrived alive...
Yeah, that....looks an awful lot like a New Hampshire.... Same thing with our New Hampshire "Smokey" (from Meyer)--she was part of the Leann's Adopt Me--we figured it was another Buff Orpington until she started feathering out with penciled! She turned out gorgeous. But since we didn't...
I've only had two commercial hatchery experiences thus far--both with Meyer Hatchery.
I live so close to the hatchery, I just go pick my small orders up myself to save them the trauma of being crammed in a box for two days. One of my Buff Orpington chicks died within 48 hours of getting it...
