Does anyone know a good online hatchery that sells quality legbars? Thanks

I don't know about "quality," but I got mine @ TSC, which uses Hoover. My girl lays lots of very pretty blue eggs!

Do you mean a hatchery like Cackle or Mcmurray, or a breeder?

Hatcheries usually don't breed for quality but for quantity. There is Mcmurray and Cackle which sell better quality birds than other hatcheries, but if you want a high-quality legbar you need to go to a breeder. Here is the link to the legbar breeder club.

If you do not want to purchase from a large hatchery, there are some small ones that have them as well. They have smaller minimums. See these links below. I'm looking for them too so have done a lot of research! I'm ordering from Spring Creek only because then I can pick them up and don't have to worry about chicks being shipped which scares me to death. Papa's has Cream & Opal ones too. And Rainier Foothills has Cream, Opal, and White!

Seems like the smaller hatcheries are selling out like crazy! It’s hard to find some!

Yeah, no kidding! After a couple of seasons of disappointment, I ordered very early this year - like almost a year in advance for some high quality BCMs.

I hope you find some! If you do, I'd keep quiet about your source!

I’ve got a local source for some BCM’s, and some of nice quality . So I consider myself lucky. Now if I could find some of the other ones!

Oh! Wish I did! I'm traveling pretty far for mine.

The best part is that she sell barred rocks, australorps, BCM’s and Blue copper marans , RiR, and turkeys. She sticks with just those, and occasionally sells Guinea fowl, 10 bucks per chick for everything. Wish I could send you some, but Tennessee is far away from Cali lol. Hope you enjoy the ones you bought. I have a BCM roo and hoping to use him for breeding.
