Description
No Choice of breed and these are all cockerels of Heavy Breed Chicks (Heritage Male poultry) including 5 Exotic Chicks free. Photos are some of the birds you may receive. Generally these old time heritage breed male roosters take 4-5 months to reach 5-6 pounds of live weight. They do not have the growth rate as the modern day broilers and take a longer time to harvest weight. They will have a lean meat and not the legs and/or heart issues that some of the modern day broilers have.

The price was right until we started feeding them. It’s been 7 months, several hundred dollars in feed, full time chicken tractor living and these birds still aren’t big enough to butcher. They were healthy the whole time but they just don’t put on any weight. I wouldn’t suggest buying these for butcher.

I ordered this and my wife picked them up. Wound up with 118 and two weeks later I still have 118 . Zero loss and all appear very healthy. This is my second order. The first order I ordered 62 , got 68 and had one die. They by far put out the best birds I’ve bought anywhere! Very happy and I will order again!

Ordered back in the spring. All arrived well packed in 2 boxes. Mostly ordered them to keep the ticks controlled. They all did well and the last of them are going in the freezer now. Thanks so much! Look forward to ordering again next spring..

A little disappointed
I ordered 100 frypan chicks with 5 exotic chicks and received 96 frypan and 5 exotics. One of each is really weak and looks like it may not make it so we will just have to see.

Very Happy costomers
Just picked up our chicks from the post office 4/13/2016 (we are in Paradise Ca.). We ordered 100 of the frypan with the 5 free exotic and 5 Easter eggers, all arrived alive and healthy. We gave them some sugar water and wet down some chick starter and they all ate and drank right away. This is the second year we have ordered from Cackle hatchery, the last time we lost a few in shipping probably due to the cold weather. We will definitely order chicks from here in the future!
P.S. Wish I could add a picture of my girls smiling faces checking out the new chicks 🙂

Great Service. 105 live Chicks! Cool exotics. Texture and Flavor not to our taste. These LOVE ticks!
Amazingly healthy chicks. I’m in Missouri so these were here the next bus. day. Not one of the chicks were unhealthy which is amazing in my book! Cackle was great over the phone and also had helpful advice along the way. We lost 60 of them in a hot day in July due to extreme heat and being couped up in a partially tarped chicken tractor while we were out to town for a few hours. They piled up and overheated. Lesson learned. A neighbor said a fan helps. Back to the quality of the birds. To my store bird accustomed tastes, these were different in flavor and much tougher even at 14 weeks (1.5lb dressed). I wouldn’t buy these again for meat purposes (only as pets and tick eaters). Even if they were up to our taste standards, they require more feed per pound than I’d call a good value. However, they were a ton of fun to watch grow though and beautiful birds. The surprise exotics were too cool! We had 1% of the ticks we normally have. Free range 100 of these and they’ll eat every tick in sight! Pretty amazing actually. Nothing else seemed to work.

Attn: cackle-Extremely Happy Customer
Overall I am extremely happy with my chicks. They are so much more boisterous and healthy seeming than the other hatchery I ordered from last year. I will definitely be ordering from you again, possibly this year. Thank you for the quality birds!
