We ordered from Ideal for the first time in July. We ordered 30 chicks (25 assorted dark egg layers) and 5 brown leghorn pullets. They all arrived hungry, active, and healthy. They are now going on 7 weeks old and are doing fantastic! Our only complaint is that we have identified at least six roos in the all pullet order so far. I have never been wrong and one of them is even crowing already (so funny because he is so little!). We have contacted Ideal and they requested that we email pictures of the suspected roos. I am sure they will make it right with us. However, we have already invested time and money into these birds that were will unfortunately not be contributing to our laying operation. Nevertheless, we will continue to do business with Ideal. The combination of their selection, prices, and quality are hard to beat!
