Carl, I don't know if these are the kind you were looking for but Mcmurray Hatchery has Beltsville White hatching eggs. Their web site is www.mcmurrayhatchery.com Good luck!

Looks like they want more for their eggs than the day old chicks.

You're right Daryll, the only good thing about it would be that you only have to order 12 eggs, where the minimum for hatched turkeys is 20. I wish chicks could be shipped in smaller numbers, I would love to try a few of each kind without ordering 20 to 25. But, I realize that they have to ship them this way for warmth. Best wishes!

Carl-- I put an ad in our area shopper--(that small advertising newspaper that most areas have)--when I wanted certain type eggs for our incubator---& received many calls--got to know many who also raised all sorts of livestock /not to many miles from-us----it ended up being good contacts for us--the ad was not expensive at all---I have also put up a notice at Co-op--gotten a response--- best wishes---
