These are a little bit better quality and closer up.

Are they all supposed to be EE's?

 

[RedNewcomer]

Oh no no. They said they would guarantee at least five different breeds. Altho there could be different colors of the same breed that they would consider as part of that five.

If I don't get a rooster this year out of the batch I got from Cackle to use for hatching next year, I think I will order from Meyer. Did you order over the phone and how long did it take from the time you ordered and received them?

I ordered online. Toke a few minutes to go through the process but it was easy. If I can recall correctly it had taken one week. I believe I ordered on a Monday or Tuesday and I had my order by the following Wednesday morning.

Really, that quick!? You must of been a lucky one. Every other hatchery I ordered from takes about 2 months! Which month did you place your order though? Was it in February when it's really busy?

Yea

Yes it was in February. I must have been lucky. I didn't realize they can take that long.

 

[kenzier093]

Yea
Quote: Yea, but this year it took just a little over a month so it wasn't as bad as before.

Well I'm glad I know that now. Also when I ordered they gave me the option as to when I wanted them shipped, so naturally wanting new chicks I choose soon as possible.

Same here, but when I ordered that was the soonest, but I don't want them when it is too cold out though.
