Clearly not! What a lie!

Right? I literally told him they were crowing and have long pointy saddles... this was his last reply (smh):

They are ACTUALLY the worst.

Mutt/EE

He is nice (does his dance, feeds them, lets them eat first, etc.) He does however mate a little TOO much. He has 20 hens/pullets to himself!

Maybe he's trying to get ahead on rent

Yep. And they were roos as identified and agreed upon by all the members above... I found them nice homes. They turned into beautiful roos... when I contacted the hatchery again and sent them pics they told me that they are "sex-link" and cannot be cockerels. Never again will Hoovers Hatchery get my business. Here is one of the Prairie bluebell roos at 13 weeks old. (PBE2)

In other news... I got some started pullets from Chicken Scratch Poultry and they are DEFINITELY girls, and so lovely. The lady, Angie, replies really quickly as well. I will do business with her again!

I’ll also warn NEVER do business with Breese Farms. See my negative post on it. They screwed up an easy order and sent my a male cream legbar, a bird which you know the sex at birth. Justin the owner lied to me twice that it was female And threatened not to refund me if I posted a bad review. He’s unprofessional and has screwed up many orders, and refunds people incorrectly on purpose out of spite. On PayPal he creates the refund as a new order instead of the existing one so that there’s a service charge so you don’t get all your money back! Warn others you know about his shady business!
