Order less than 25 from hatchery?

[Cetawin]

I praise Meyer Hatchery to the sky. My 22 babies hatched on the 21st and were with me on the 22nd. I lost one at 4 days old, but she was weak from the get go. The rest are thriving and now 6 weeks old. They have great customer service too. I ordered a blue cochin and I received a beautiful little girl that turned out to be a splash.

The shiping charge was worth it too. They came in a nice bed of hay and had heating pad under them.

I ordered my four from Meyer hatchery too--could not be more pleased! My two Easter Eggers are very pretty girls, have muffs & are as friendly as can be, my Cuckoo Maran girl is the same, I had to order straight run on the Blue Andalusian & ended up with a splash Rooster but we love him anyway-& now we can hatch our own one of these days!

THat's where mine came from. And where I live I wouldn't call it a major city. The whole county has 60,000 people in it. I got mine 3wks from day of order. When ordering under certain amount u have to pay extra...But when u only want a few it's the way to go!

Try Mt. Healthy. You can order as few as eight and no exorbitant small order fee.

I think I am going to go with MyPetChicken.com... They seem to have the lowest shipping fees!
