Mixing breeds is fine, but some hatcheries are very limited on being able to ship only one of 2-3 different kinds of birds, so check with the hatchery. I have ordered from Cackle Hatchery many times and always been happy with them. Strong healthy chicks that turn into strong healthy birds. I ordered from Dunlap once (meat birds) and when I had over 50% death rate, I called them. Their response was that it sounded like I was doing everything right and that I might have had a "bad batch" but that I have to expect some loss with meat birds. No offer to replace them or even give me a partial refund. So they are very much on my bad list.
