Welp hatchery experiences?

[desertskynm]

Anyone have any good or bad experiences they want to share about Welp hatchery?

Would you order them (again)?

Thank you,
Misty

Wrong thread.

why is it wrong? they sell ducks.

never mind

No problem...

But maybe that means you have experience with them on the chicken side of things... Just want to know if this is a good hatchery for poultry (though I am thinking pekin duck personally.)

All input is appreciated!

I got Bourbon Red turkeys from Welp in 2009. They were healthy and did very well. I ordered ducks from then in 2010 and again, all arrived healthy and did well. I also made an order that I later had to cancel and they were nice about that and didn't give me any trouble over it, so I rate both their shipping and customer service highly.

I initially stated that they drop shipped from Metzer Farms, as do like 7 different hatcheries...but then found out they have their own flock.

I have got 2 chickens from them (through my feed store) and they seem to be healthy, robust, chickens. I would say MMH is better though....

Edited to fix errors...

MMH? What does that stand for?

I don't have any experience with their ducks, but they sold me some very nice Australorps. Calm, friendly, healthy, laid lots of eggs... just what I would expect.
