Hi! I was wondering if anyone has bought chicks from bomgaars? And do you know where they order from? And if you have did the chicks live? Were they healthy? Also is bomgaars chicken feed good?
Thanks a ton!

That’s what I was wondering.. what hatchery. I have heard a lot of good things over the negatives about McMurray and they are kinda local to us in Des Moines, Iowa.We purchased our laying hens from Bomgaars. All were healthy. However, I inspected each one as they went in the box for pasty butt. I have noticed some Bomgaars locations have bad cases of pasty butt. Sad and concerning cases to where I said something to the manager. We used the chick feed until we found better quality feed with less dust (that the chickens won’t eat!) at a local feed supply store (D and M Ag supply Rapid City SD) which was same price for 50lb bags. I believe Bomgaars uses Murray Mc Murray hatchery if I remember correctly.
I apologize. I had the hatchery name wrong. It is Hoover’s Hatchery that my local feed store uses. We ordered 16 Red Ranger meat birds from them last year and they were great. We just ordered more laying chicks for delivery March 12. We trust our feed store because he has never steered us wrong. And my chicks from Bomgaars were super healthy and are doing great so we are satisfied with them.That’s what I was wondering.. what hatchery.

Can’t recall what Bomgaars uses so it can be McMurray. Should be on their website. I just make sure the chicks are chosen in front of me and scope out the conditions in the store first. I’m not sure a retail store with chicks is a good comparison to the actual hatchery. I worry it is more to do with the lack of attention to the chicks once they arrive in the retail storeI apologize.
