Yeah I didn’t really get that. A couple of the pages said losing this one particular group of birds or the other was the “final straw” for getting all new coops and runs or whatever and I was thinking in my head like... “why wouldn’t you, a hatchery, and one with supposedly some extremely rare birds, not have had good predator proofing from the beginning ???” It makes no sense. I try to not to judge though and what happened was horrible but how do raccoons AND mink get in and slaughter sooooo many birds? I could maybe see mink cause they can fit through really small holes that might not even be noticeable but raccoons are massive. I thought that was weird. And how they called EEs Ams. But they do seem like they’re trying and I’m sure they’re nice enough so I don’t wanna be too judgmental but just sucks so many birds had to be slaughtered before they thought “Hey. Wait. Maybe I Should predator proof...”

Especially such* hard to find ones. Last tine i looked, scotts dumpies and manx rumpless were both just ... gone from them because of predators. Birds that after years of searching I cannot find apart from their website where they're still listed

Wait those ones are gone? Cause I think the Scotts ones were still on there. But there website doesn’t seem to be updated too often. But that’s just sad! And infuriating!!

Stay far away from Sand Hill.

They were unavaliable for this past spring, and im pretty sure every breed i had looked at was gone from predators

What's listed as available or even listed on their website is far from what's actually available or gonna be available.
Yes I've dealt with them several times over several years.

Good oh dear or bad oh dear!?

COLT!!!!!

What’s not normal ????

Sandhill having their dues in order.

Sand Hill is notorious for being flakey.
Hope that's not too harsh a word.

Yes

Sandhill Farms looking remotely competent.

*Consistently Inconsistent

Yes

Yeah I didn’t like that they called EEs “Ameraucanas.”

Stay far away from Sand Hill.

this is blowing my mind!!! I always thought those two were like really reputable and everything and THE place for rare breeds and such. At least that’s how they’re always talked about. glad I’ve never bought from them now!!! My mind is totally blown hahah

Ok, IMO Sandhill is TRYING to save these breeds and be honest but their execution of this goal... isn’t great
