CAN ANYONE RECCOMEND A HATCHERY IN NY OR NOTHERN PA?

[crazyfarmmom27]

I am looking for a hatchery in New York or Northern PA. I read it's a good idea to try and find a hatchery as close to your home as possible to give the chicks the least amount of travel time possible. Any suggestions? Thank you!

The only one I know of is Mt. Healthy in Ohio. That's where my feed store gets its chicks from.

Meyer Hatchery in Ohio has nice chicks and good service.

What breed are you looking to get? There is someone on Craigslist (out by your area I think) that has quite a few breeds to pick from. Here is the link...maybe this will help. You'll be supporting a local person, and the chicks won't have to be shipped, you can pick them up. Better all way around, I think!

Try Townline Hatchery in Michigan. Travel time would be about the same. www.townlinehatchery.com

I've ordered from Mt Healthy and Meyer in OH. Hoffman in PA also has a good selection when in stock, but wouldn't let me pick up even though they are just around the corner

Just order chicks that are air shipped and sent from a hatchery that usually ships to your area this time of year. I am in upstate NY and ordered chicks from Privett Hatchery in New Mexico. They came last week and I didnt lose a single one. Even the extras are alive and well. The hatcheries in our area (NY,PA,OH) have a pretty slim selection right now, not to mention theyre selling pullet chicks at over 3 dollars a chick... thats insane!
