eFowl - has anyone purchased there?

[SuburbanMomof4]

It looks like eFowl is an eBay for poultry. I ran across it looking for Silver Appleyard ducklings - also found a GREAT price on guinea keets.

Has anyone purchased on eFowl? Is it a good bet - or a complete gamble?

I'm just getting started homesteading - probably start narrowing down breeds and breeding in a few years, but right now I just need some layers and table-fowl and some guineas to keep the ticks down!

Never mind, my first comment, it looks like a regular hatchery.

I can't believe their rates, though, so I still want to know...

Has anyone else purchased from eFowl?

If you search efowl you will get a lot of threads about experiences here on the forum. But just on the front page of this forum there is this post you might want to read: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/632667/thoughts-on-efowl

It is generally understood that they are a drop-shipper of birds and thus it may be in your best interest to order directly from a hatchery so that you know where your birds are actually coming from.
