Hatcheries/breeders around Iowa?

[Poultry Showman]

Hey everyone! Springtime is coming around and as usual, I am sort of scouting out some potential hatcheries and breeders to find good poultry for next year's go-around at the fair! If you know of a good poultry breeder that is willing to ship and it's outside of Iowa would you post a link? If you know a good hatchery that will produce quality poultry that would also help! Thank you so much!

You're a little late for this year's ordering, unfortunately.

Cackle in Missouri
McMurray is in Iowa, they have a few apa breeds.

Thanks so much! How is availability for you? I've heard it's hard to get chickens from there. Unless I'm wrong?

Okay! What breeds are you looking for? Or do you want any. Your name is "poultry showman" so I assume you want a good showing breed? Also what week would you want them?

Yep! I'm talking about Meyers

Usually there are a good amount avalible. You will need to filter by week but there are 12 breeds available March 17! I would recommend the polish, cochin or deleware from that week.

McMurray does have a few APA certified breeds now. However, if you are looking at showing your birds your best bet is to find breeders for the specific birds you are wanting to show because they will breed for quality instead of quantity.
