MURRAY MCMURRAY HATCHERY

A long-standing reputable resource, this well-loved hatchery in Iowa carries a wide vari-
ety of bantams and standard breeds as well as many heritage, rare, and fancy chickens.
Minimum order of 25 birds, but they're fine with you mixing it up with geese, turkeys,
and other fowl!
MY PET CHICKEN
888-460-1529
A boutique operation that will ship as few as three birds to your front door (or post
office), My Pet Chicken is a powerhouse of a site, selling everything from coops to
feed to fancy bantams. They also have great free downloadable chicken-care guides and
chicken-related gifts. It's one of the few places where you can buy both a rooster and a
toaster that cooks eggs.
OMLET

Makers of the Eglu, the coolest backyard coop available to the public today. A little
pricey, they'll run you about the same as a new iPod (or two), but I assure you they are
much more fun.
