My Pet Chicken for Fertilzed Eggs

[lmdengler]

Hi All -
Does anyone have any experience with the company "My Pet Chicken" for ordering fertilized eggs? Can anyone suggest places other than "My Pet Chicken"?
Thanks!

Have you tried contacting folks in your state thread ? Perhaps someone there has eggs of the variety you are looking for. Sure would beat shipped eggs.

How would I find a link to my state thread? Sorry to be so "uninformed" I am just new to the subject.

I ordered an assortment in October. There was a snafu with shipping, they pegged it on the breeder, but they allowed me to delay my shipment until a more convenient time for me in November. I ordered a dozen and received 14. A breed code list was included, but the writing on the eggs was atrocious and I only had solid IDs for perhaps half. At least six breeds included (they promised three minimum.) 13/14 candled fertile, I broke one accidentally and I wound up with nine chicks. Though there were times in that shipping time where I swore I’d never use them again, now that it’s done (chicks are 7 weeks old) I would say my experience was good but not great and I would still order again. I was particularly impressed with the fertility given the time of year.

Here are a few hatcheries you can investigate - Meyer Hatchery, Cackle Hatchery, Murray McMurray Hatchery and Stromberg Chickens. I'm sure there are many more.

Just thought of another hatchery, Welp Hatchery.
