My pet chicken or Meyer hatchery?

[blitz1027]

I'm looking at placing a small order for chicks and I was wondering which hatchery you guys prefer. From what I can tell MPC and Meyer are the only ones that sell the breeds I want and I don't have to order a whole bunch of birds. So which one do you guys prefer?

I've only ever ordered from MPC and I have been very happy with them.

MPC at one time got their chicks from Meyer and probably still do.

Meyers is a good outfit. Do call on the phone and see exactly what is hatching and when!!! It varies from week to week, as most hatcheries do. Some places are merely re-sellers.

I've never ordered fom MPC, but, I have used Meyer for chicks and for other non-live products and have always had good luck.

I've used them both and they were both great.

Definitely Meyer.

The cost is definitely more reasonable than MPC's high shipping cost.
