North Central Arkansas. We drove to Cackle once. Took about 3 hours. I get them through the mail now.

I can't wait to add to my troop next spring! we live within a very short drive of heartland hatchery in MO, and have had a wonderful experience with him there, we got 2 turkey's and 10 chicks that my children hand picked with him throwing in an extra chick for free, and Everytime we go to the feed store or I see HH post on FB about chicks and or eggs for incubation I wanna jump in and get more, and it doesn't help that my enabling DH tries to talk me into more chicks and I have to be the voice of reason (since I am the care giver and culler) but I am in secret wanting to get more to satisfy my addiction ....soon very soon! I'm still waiting for my first group to start laying me some breakfast!

We are buying from Heartland through Kearney Feed next week!

Looks like I couldn't help myself again.. I am going to TSC to get 2 chicks today... hopefully i don't come home with more than 4

You're lucky--our store won't sell less than six at a time!

Our TSC requires 4 or more. Still no chicks for me, because no fence yet. Withdrawal is hell.

Lucky for me I have been inoculated from this disease. I got married to a woman that can count. If she notices my chickies going from 6 to 8 to 10 she gives me a shot....to the head with a frying pan

. I have learned if I check with her first and follow what ever instruction she gives then I do not get the shot.

Yeh my ol' lady, oops I mean boss, has the same inoculation device. I prefer to cook with cast iron, but I am thinking about switching to all aluminum teflon, just for malleability.
