Dunlap Hatchery

I feel the need to rant about our local hatchery, Dunlap, I spent $ 75 for 30 duck eggs, I picked up, 25 were not fertile, and I have the eggs to prove it, so I got 5 ducks that they sell for $ 4 and some change each, and they refuse to credit me anything, NOTHING, even though I had more orders with them, they did not ship them, I picked them up and put them in the incubator shortly there after, but no matter what I did with them you can see they were not fertile… to me that is bad business, I would think they would try and do something to make it right, anything… but they did not even try. SO just a warning, the whole egg, thing is a RIP OFF…

I (Jule Eberle) have been getting all my birds from Dunlap’s. Greg and his family are people who care about their customers and are spot on about any bird issues. Any other place can advertise that they «know» all about chickens, they usually dont. The ideas about when you buy a product from a person/​company you would expect customer support, knowledge of issues and how to work with the situation, because it is a investment and you want to spend your money «wisely». This is exactly what Dunlap does, and i will never go anywhere else because, making my purchases here saves me time and money, the birds are not stressed out by little hands, and are in excellent health. I have no idea about any health issues because I have had none, and people may have had trouble getting through on the phone, please give them room for this as they are very, very busy at the least with customers and local businesses that they sell to. It took me a bit of persistence to get through, but I squeaked in finally. I would prefer them to be very busy rather than to be standing around. This family has been very good to me.
Respectfully, Jule Eberle and Steve Wilhelm

OK, I heard a rumor — I can’t confirm because I didn’t ask — that Dunlap supplies both Zamzow’s and D&B with their chicks. I happened to be out in Caldwell yesterday and so I decided to stop by and see if I could cut out the middle man.
I AM SO GLAD I STOPPED BY!
They had a huge variety of chicks and ducklings available. The store was clean, the employee (wish I could remember her name) was extremely knowledgable and friendly and the prices were spot-​on. I liked them so much, I ordered a second batch of chicks to be picked up in a couple months.
