Live in Canada and it’s heart warming to see Meyer give male chicks a chance to live when compared to other hatcheries and/or egg industries

[@cliffordwilliams9597]

What the heck do they do with all the males??? I'm really curious! Who wants a bunch of easter egger or leghorn roosters???

[@desireehart8190]

I ended up ordering from Meyer in the fall partially based on this video. The Meal Maker was a big part of that decision. First time owning chickens much less getting them in the mail. Got 8 beautiful birds of 7 different breeds and they are all happy and healthy and just about ready to start laying. Meal Maker turned out to be a beautiful Barred Rock who is my top hen and loved sit on my shoulder when she was younger.

Have never ordered chicks from Meyer hatchery before but after watching your video of their operation I would not hesitate in ordering from them from now on in the future. You did an awesome job with this video, they should give you free chicks for a long time! Very professional job! Thumbs up!!

I'm so glad this randomly came up. I was considering ordering from them. I love their meal deal you mentioned.

Thank you Myer for doing that!
