Friday Morning I received another order from Dunlap. Fourteen Ducklings dead, 1 almost dead and all of the 6 remaining were dead by 10:30 a.m. They say they will refund my money and offered to ship some more but 40 dead ducklings are enough for me. I will ordered from Metzer again.

After receiving a recommendation on this site for Dunlap Hatchery in Idaho, I checked them out. I normally order my ducks from Metzer in California but Dunlap listed the Cayugas as being ready 3 weeks before anyone else. The site lists that you can order online but when you try to, the buttons...

See, and there in lies my mistake I was using Wet bulb percentage for a regular Hygrometer. It's almost half the difference. Metzer Farms states the 78-90% but it's Wet Bulb not Hygrometer. I didn't realize there was so much difference. Thanks
