Silkie Chicken is right. It is a guessing game, although an educated one, as to how many chicks will hatch each hatch. For example last Wednesday we had abut 4,000 extra chicks of various breeds so we were able to pull a lot of people off the waiting list. It also really depends what breed you are looking for. Some breeds are available sooner than others, but because most retail orders have so many breeds on them and many breeds are sold out until May, we are trying to keep people from being upset when they are given a May ship date by letting you know the availability situation up front.
We do still have about 40,000 chicks available the week after Easter so give us a call to see if we have the breed you are looking for.
One poster stated that it is a quality control issue. That is not the case. We are hatching at full capacity. We have never seen anything like this yar in the 70 plus years we have been in business. In the past we may have been sold out for a week or two on specific items, but never completely sold out for over 5 weeks. I will not complain. With the economy like it is I am thankful to have a successful business, not affected by the recession.
We appreciate all of you that continue to support us.
