"I have ordered from
all hatcheries to get birds to the standards. McMurray [Hatchery] has by far had
the best of the best birds. They are to the standard. Of course not all

specimens." — 5-Star Customer Review on Type and Conformation
EXHIBITION NOTE: We cannot guarantee that individual birds will be show quality. We suggest ordering multiple chicks and then selecting the best for show. Special care will need to be taken with any long-feathered breeds to prevent feathers from breaking.
