Meyer Hatchery Chicken pics anyone??

[The Howards]

Anyone get ducks from Meyers? I was thinking of adding some to my order. Would they even ship chicks and ducklings together or would I have to pay another $40 for shipping?

We got 4 from them this year. The ducks don't come from the same hatchery. I believe they were shipped from CA and yes you have to pay separate shipping. They arrived healthy and happy by Wednesday.

Mschickenmomma, it's so hard to believe that mine are going to look like that in two weeks!! Your babies are so cute in their awkward teenage stage!!

I gave mine some hard boiled egg yesterday and boy was that fun to watch!!!

So cute!! Goodness, they grow so fast. I never notice their daily growth but when I look at them on the roost in the coop and see how much more room they take up then I can see how much they've grown!

It's the breed, Lynn.

Boys don't feather in with those colors. Your little ones are looking good!

Thanks!!! That is soooo great to hear. I may possibly have all hens again. That would be good luck!

I know! I can't believe how fast they grow! I was looking at pictures of 5 week old chicks, and they are twice the size of mine! So mine will be double the size they are now in 2 short weeks! Hard to believe.

I'm starting to get excited because the Campines and the Easter Eggers are starting to grow in their colorful feathers.

Meyer does supply/ship my pet chickens but I doubt they do all of them. Several of the sites mentioned on the hatchery thread are just drop shipped from various hatcheries and the website is maintained by others.

Just so you know, I'm a postal worker and don't scan packages every minute of the day. Only when received in a facility or delivery is made to the customer. The tracking number is generated by the CUSTOMER and they may not bring that box to the post office until the next day (or ever for that matter).
