2021 Chick Order

[VeryHappyHens]

They're okay in my experience. I'd rather have ordered just from Hoover's and IDEAL, but most of the breeds I wanted weren't avaliable at those two.

Oh!! Damm it! I just look in there website and all the BLRW and Yokohoma are sold out ! Look like I came late. ):

I've learned to place orders the day they change pricing to the current year's otherwise odds are you won't get what you want for everything. IDEAL was my last order for this year in mid January and they were already out of sexed standards and a few breeds I had wanted for March

Like i said, had to fullfil minimum orders with each hatchey, and most requires at least 5 per breed and per sex

Forgot to ever explain the asterisk (*) I put next to the rose brown leghorns. Funny story, they were meant to be st. Run with the hopes of getting a pair for my projects to use but they accidentally put them down as females. Hopefully if anyone is sexed wrong, it's them

Like hoovers. I heard of this cool breed isabelle leghorn I might order 15 isabella leghorns from hoovers. Because sadly Mc murrays all sold out of my favorite breeds.

Be aware the Isabellas have lots of issues featherwise. Plus I heard from some leghorn people that they're really not very hardy as chicks or adults and poor layers

And pretty sure they're sold out of them too. They were for a while after I got my 6 ordered and they don't come sexed

Oh okay I will. Hopefully they do okay. Im not gonna take them to show its more to make my flock pretty. But im very hopeful of the Isabelle leghorns I am ordering. Just wanna make my flock have more colors. I really do not care for egg production just there prettiness. Thank you I will watch out for any issues!

Well again, the feather issues they usually have (especially hatchery stock) detracts from the color beauty. The ones I've seen tend to look constantly ruffled with bad feathers.
