    My chicks should be shipping tomorrow!

    I just got my beautiful chicks last Thursday from MPC (they were hatched on Tuesday and arrived Thursday). The tracking info was terrible. I called my local PO and they were on the alert for me. Everyone arrived safe and sound and so far they are all healthy. Hope they stay that way because...
