My trip to Cackle was yesterday. They let me pick up the chicks a day early as there may be an ice storm coming today…. Cackle has a huge building and the store part is small and in one corner. You can’t really see any of the good stuff thru the viewing windows. They have videos on their...

I'm going to Cackle for my chicks. It's a 2+ hr. drive but it's been on my bucket list, lol. The silvers (which are what I am getting) are $3.55 each. Sold straight run. I'm getting 4 so I can hopefully have at least one of each sex. The golds are like $12 each. I didn't want to spend...

Good morning! Well, I don't know if you call these beautiful or just cute, but I fell in love with the Appenzeller Spitzhaubens...and guess what--- I'm going to the hatchery in 1 week to pick up 4 of them!
