Murray McMurray - Extra 1 Rare Chick always a Rooster?

[mosier]

I am thinking of ordering from Murray McMurray. I see that you can add 1 free rare chick to your order. I am wondering if these generally turn out to be a rooster?

I can almost guarantee that it will be. I ordered one too. Turned out to be a Wyandotte roo. Good luck maybe you will be the exception.

I figured it would be a roo. Since I live in the city I can't have one, so I guess I won't choose to get the free rare.

My free chick was a hen, and was not a rare breed. It was a New Hampshire Red.

But she is the sweetest chicken I have so I cannot complain.

We got a golden laced wyandotte hen and she is a wack job she runs from bugs she runs from other chicken and she runs from people

she is on the very bottom of the peckng order

You can tell themnot to send you one if you just wont a certin chick.

I ordered from them twice this year. I recieved one white cochin which I believe is a hen. The other one is a silver spangled hamburg. It is definately a rooster. I agree you will most likely get a rooster.

I also received a Spangled Silver Hamburg which I believe is a hen thus far - I asked the hatchery that question and
they answered that it is the luck of draw.

I ordered from them..and got a hen..I am thinking a Dom. Not sure yet. She is 7 weeks old, and is either a Dom, or a BR. Either way...its a hen!

After much hemming and hawing, we've decided our free rare chick is a dominique pullet.

We declined McMurray's free exotic chick and they sent us an extra pullet chick from one of the 25 breeds we ordered.
