This year the chicks aren’t the only ones hitting the road at McMurray Hatchery. Our team is gearing up to head out to several conferences and expos across the U.S. to meet with our customers, talk to those interested in learning more about raising poultry, and answer your questions.

Earlier this year, we were proud to sponsor the Great Appalachian Homesteading Conference — hosted by Patara Marlow, and held at Tennessee Tech University in Cookeville, TN. Visitors to the conference were able to see Whiting True Blue and Whiting True Green baby chicks at the event, take home samples of our Murray’s Best Proso seeds, and several winners received McMurray Hatchery t-shirts and travel mugs. 

This Fall and Winter our team will be traveling to several states including California, Virginia, and Alabama. See were we’re headed to next:
