What is a good reputable online hatchery I can order from?

I want a NPIP certified hatchery that sells day old chicks or hatching eggs. Im looking for silkies, frizzles, and polish hens...Any suggestions on a trusted online dealer....

I've heard that mypetchicken.com is a nice website. ships chicks in a few days, and is able to vaccinate them.
Can pick any breed or genders.

Lots of people seem to like Murray Mcmurray, and I have heard good things about Ideal. Some folks try to go with the closest large hatchery so the chicks don't have to travel as far. Good luck!

If I didn't already have a zillion chicks and Chickens, I'd be ordering the Ornamental Layer Collection from McMurray.

I love variety... it's why Icelandics will soon become my #1 breed.

Somewhere on this forum is a thread with pictures of hatchery silkies. You might want to look at those photos and make sure that is what you want.

They do not look like the silkies that come from breeders, so if you are looking at photos of silkies and thinking that is exactly what you want, you may be disappointed in what you end up with from a hatchery. If you look at those photos and think that they are just what you are looking for: cute little chickens, then you will be happy.

There are many breeders of silkies on Backyard Chickens.
