Any input on this guy/gal? They’re 2 days short of 6 weeks. I’ve been concerned about their comb coloring up. I got them from McMurrays on April 10th and they’ve been raised outside by a broody hen.

I'm back to being active on these forums, because my parents said we're likely going to be expanding the coop this year! Meaning I need to get to ordering baby chicks pretty soon. We've got 4 chickens now- three hens and a bantam rooster- and would likely be upgrading to a 8x16 foot run from a...

We received this cockerel from Murray McMurray hatchery 12 weeks ago. I posted when he was younger, but no one quite knew what he was. He has some slight barring on his feathers and is noticeably larger than the buff orpington cockerels that are his same age. I am trying to figure out what he is...

I would be in the future possible interested in the sebrights (both gold and silver) and Egyptian Fayoumis along with other bantam breeds and possibly their French Black Copper Marans. Are their birds show quality and what are your experiences with this hatchery? Good or not? Thx,

I've been goofing around with the Chicken Calculator, and I think I might have a crossbreeding gameplan. But, I want to know more about the genetics of the birds involved first. For example, the Cuckoo Marans from Murray McMurray, what is the 'extension of black'? 4 options on the calculator...

We ordered Red Rangers for meat hens and took the Murray McMurray surprise offering. I’m guessing this little one is a australorp, probably male. Any other guesses?

Their first pics.

We got this little girl on May 19, 2020 from Murray McMurray Hatchery in a group of assorted layers. Can anybody help me identify her breed? These pics were taken, 05/19/2020 when she was about 1-3 days old. She's quite the sprightly little thing, very active, and bossy, LOL! Thank you.😊

We got this little gray girl on May 19, 2020 from Murray McMurray Hatchery in a group of assorted layers. Can anybody help me identify her breed? These pics were taken this morning, 05/ 21/2020. She is about 3 to 5 days old. It looks like her legs might be turning gray. Thank you.😊

1 year ago today we received 22 chicks from Murray McMurray Hatchery. All were alive on arrival and still are today. When I was researching before ordering chicks, all I could find were horror stories. This post is for those folks who are searching before they order so that they know not all...
