hi,
this is a thread that anyone that ordered from murray mcmurray hatchery that got the free surprise chick.

what breed? was it a cockerel or pullet?


I ordered 16 chicks from them including the free surprise chick should be coming in May.

I've never ordered online, but I've heard that the "extra" chicks are usually always cockerels.

 

[gimmie birdies]

I have heard that too, but I have also been told it could be an extra of the breed you bought.

They'll put extra males for warmth. It should be the same breed as the chicks you ordered.
