“Great breed for my backyard flock...cold weather hardy and good dual purpose (meat and eggs), birds. They're not aggressive or nasty to the other breeds or birds Love having them in my flock!”
“Spot (creatively named for the spot on her head) is the most naturally people-oriented chick of the seven chicks we ordered. If you put your hand in the brooder she hops on for an elevator ride to snuggles. She is assertive within her budding flock, and my guess is that she will either be flock boss or #2 behind our blue copper marans. One of the sweetest things is that she is the constant companion of our cream legbar, Astrid, who is smaller than most of the other chicks and a little less assertive. Spot makes sure there is space for Astrid at the feeder and under the heating plate. I'd love to see her as flock boss. She's a wonderful little chick.”
Thank you, Margo, for taking the time to review your chick order from My Pet Chicken! While we understand how you feel, we do our best to ensure our hatcheries have the highest level of biosecurity precautions which includes not allowing pick up of the chicks. It would just be too dangerous to have customers arriving and possibly exposing our facility, unintentionally, to possible dangers. We hope you understand and always feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns. We are happy to help!
