    Ship to Home?

    I'm looking to buy ducklings or full-grown ducks. I'm in NC and currently the only place locally to find any is Tractor Supply, the problem is it's too cold (it snowed yesterday) and I always worry they won't have any by mid-April. (FYI we have many years of experience raising ducklings, and...

    Opinions on Ideal Poultry Hatchery?

    Hello, I'm having a shipment of bantam chicks coming in tomorrow from Ideal Poultry, and I am curious about anyone's experience with the hatchery. Have it been a positive or negative experience? What was the quality of the chicks once they grew up? I want to know what to expect.

    Hatchery vs breeder araucanas

    Hello! I had a really unfortunate hatch this weekend and had only 1 Bielefelder chick make it (with cross beak and one eye). "Gloria" needs a little guidance on what to do as a chicken, and all my others are way older, and I won't be hatching again till June, so I've been contemplating going...

    Ameraucana, Araucana, Cream Legbar - Ont., Canada

    Good morning all, Does anyone know of any breeders/hatcheries that would sell blue egg layers, preferably as pullets/hens? I'm in south-western Ontario, for reference. As a side question, I've been told that chicks or hatching eggs would likely be my only option for any of the above breeds...

    Faverolles hatchery vs breeders.

    I've been considering getting faverolles in the future, and I have heard that many people with hatchery Faverolles have poor quality birds (some are really small, no muff, no beard, not friendly, etc). Do you believe this is due to them being from hatcheries, or due to the smaller gene pool that...

    Which hatchery does Stockdale's use?

    I bought some chicks from Stockdale's. It is my first time buying from them and I am curious to know which hatchery they use. I typically use breeders except for 1 other time, went to tsc which uses hoover. I like to look up their photos if possible. Thanks

    When can you determine Breeds?

    I ordered a mixed selection of pullets from a hatchery, they unfortunately don't tell you what breeds they send. I do know that they are true breeds, so my question is when do they start to take on their final feathers so that you can determine the breeds? I have so many and trying to guess...

    hi everybody! I have never raised chickens (but my father has) and we want to get a few, but our city doesn’t allow them! We were thinking that maybe we could keep chickens at a nearby farm and collect the eggs there, but they won’t live on our property. It’s like a person who practices...

    Selling baby chicks?

    I recently had an idea of buying hyline brown chicks from a hatchery and selling them in my area. I have researched and I would be the only one selling them in my area and have also heard of people going miles to another person selling them. I have bought feeders, drinkers, bedding & wire, but I...

    Best For Show

    What would be better to do to obtain good show birds....Buying from a local breeder, or ordering from hatchery? I like doing both, but night sure would be best. I hear....and for me it is true....That raising chicks, you "bond" better than older birds. What is your opinion, thoughts, or advice...

    Feed back on Ideal CX?sh

    Gonna try meat birds next spring. I'd like to know how the Ideal CX are. Do you have to limit feed from day one? How did they turn out? Would you recommend? If not, why not? Healthy? I'm staying away from the broilers b/c of the crowing in the neighborhood. Don't want to announce to the...

    Hatchery Salmom Faverolles

    I have been thinking about getting some Salmon Faverolles recently and I've read a few threads about them. Some people say that some of the hatchery birds don't have the five toes, beards, and muffs. Does anybody know if the chicks sold from Meyer Hatchery stay true to their breed or not? It's...
