I have ordered from Meyers many times. When ordering, it can nerve wracking.They send on Monday and I usually get them on Wednesday. They are in OH, I am in WA. I am afraid they will arrive on a Thursday, that is one day too late. But this time I can tell they will come on time. I am so happy! Travel mercies for all!
I have ordered...
3 specialty birds, I don't currently have. And their straight run bargain, (i like surprises. ) I also ordered a free meal maker female, and a free flock protector. ( I ordered other birds that they could not fill, but that is okay.) I said, "ship what you have from my order."
I recently hatched out 2 chicks that need friends. I dont know the breeds on these 2 but guessing the first one is EE it hatched from blue egg. The second chick is probably BCM mix.

When my birds come in tomorrow I will post what I got. If anyone else is buying this week, let's post them!
 
This is my meal maker from Meyer’s 10/14/25 hatch. I’m pretty sure she’s an Olive Egger. She’s getting quite the crest!

All my chickens are from Meyers. The time they spend sitting in the Cleveland distribution center is always nerve wracking. After leaving there it seems like the tracking moves fast!
 
It was scary, some of the birds I ordered were unavailable, they sent me a note but did not call. They did not know what to do, even though my note said send what you do have. I figured it out fast enough, but I thought I lost a day, but when they get to spokane they are always one day out.
 
They came 16 total, 3 free ones. (One meal maker, one flock protector, and maybe an extra because, i did not get all birds that i requested.) Of the ones I asked for 10 straight run bargain, one steel egger, and 2 buff orpingtons.
