Ordering Information:

You will receive one baby chick from this assortment for each quantity you add to your basket.

The breeds chosen to fulfill your order are selected by the hatchery based on which breeds had a particularly good hatch week your shipment is scheduled.

We can't take requests, as we are at the mercy of Mother nature's whims. If you really want that particular breed, you'll need to wait for its availability to pop up. 

Also, remember that breeds in assortments may or may not be tagged, and specific breeds may or may not be noted on the packing list. If you need help with identification, please check out our Baby Chick Identification photos.
