We've Got You Covered!
M
When you sign the delivery slip on your next lot of Moyer’s
chicks, don t expect to see a masked man with a vaccine gun
looking over your shoulder.
However, what you can expect from Moyer's is chicks from
breeders fully immunized against Newcastle, Bronchitis, AE
and IBD. Flocks are also regularly monitored for MG & MS to
maintain clean status. For you this means vigorously healthy
baby chicks with day old resistance to most viral stresses. Can
you afford not to be covered?
