drop shipping chicks

[BirchHatchery]

anyone got a list of hatcheirs that raise their own birds that dont drop ship?

I don't think many do raise their own birds. However, that doesn't necessarily mean that they drop ship, either. They may just get eggs from their breeders and hatch them.

Hopefully someone will come along and tell which ones do not drop ship. I know that mypetchicken does (drop ship, that is). Ideal does not and I think McMurray does not as well.

Im pretty sure Mt Healthy doesnt drop ship.

I believe Schelcht in IA keeps their own flocks.

Cackle has their own flocks, but not 100% sure all their hatching eggs come from their own flocks.

Nor saying Cackle does, but I see nothing wrong with the hatcheries getting their eggs from breeders. Sounds extremely reasonable to me. And drop shipping can work in the right circumstances, especially if it gets you the numbers, sexes, and breeds you want. I just like to know where the chicks are actually being shipped from to minimize the stress of travel.

their nothing wrong with just hatching and drop shipping i have orderd from meyer cackle purely and ideal. But what i am looking for is hatchery stock Cockerals Barred or white rock roos that will get as big as the standars read 9-10 lbs at maturity! thats why id like to fine a hatchery that has their own parent stock and can tell me if their roos get as big as their spose to
