Meyer Hatchery? Also breed advice?

I bought and picked up 13 pullets from Meyer in February. At 9.5 weeks it’s looking like I indeed have 13 pullets and they are very hardy, healthy birds with sweet personalities. Time will tell on long term health and laying/meat quality but I’m very happy with my purchase so far!

Also, Meyer was so very patient with my 12,000 questions several times a week over their chat function (which is AWESOME).

I am probably biased because I do work for Meyer hatchery, but I wanted you to know that we do offer a credit if one of the pullets end up a cockerel. I do handle customers once in awhile who report them, but it does not seem to be very common. I have about 60 chicks from Meyer that I bought as pullets and so far none of them are appearing to be a cockerel so im happy as a customer as well

My experience with Meyer Hatchery was great, all birds lived, all were female (but they were sex links so hard to screw that up) and I had a couple extra. This was my first time ordering from a hatchery, I later found out not all hatcheries end up with positive results. What I liked best about Meyers was their website did a better jobs of explaining the breeds and had pictures of the eggs as well as chicks and the chickens.

Great birds at Meyers all were very good quality and super healthy no issues. Very happy with them.

I realize this is a couple of weeks old, but I ordered catalogs from all the hatcheries/breeders I could. Many have excellent descriptions to accompany the photos of the breeds. I read them for fun, but they could be very useful when choosing breeds. I highly recommend ordering some! They're fun to look at and free!
