I ordered our Cornish Rock X from them since we usually order from McMurray (they are local to us) but they were out of stock. I drove to Hoover Hatchery and picked up the birds. I *think* it is just cheaper because it's a little family run business and I'm sure their overhead is low. They are located in this dinky little town I'm sure rent is cheap!
Anyway, we lost a few birds due to cocci and operator error but I think some of that goes along with the breed and we had lost a few of our layers from McMurray to cocci too. But other than that, they have been good birds. I'd order from them again, although I don't have any experience of getting chicks shipped from them.
Did you end up ordering your chicks yet?
