Thanks Bronc. Although I don't think I can ever wrap my mind around shaveudogg's response, this thread was also never intended to bring forth an arguement. I just wanted people to be aware of the experience I had with the McMorons. I wanted everyone to be smart shoppers. If all of YOU had a...

Why the hell would I wait around to see if someone screws something up? When you order something, you expect to get it and personally if you have animals coming I think you should be prepared for them. Not being prepared would be as stupid as organizing a party, getting everyone to...
Sam, thanks for the offer. I was going to get bobwhites. I may have someone who I can get quail from that is in my meetup group (The Central Texas Pet Chicken Meetup Group).
Chelly, I have no idea who they use.
Also, I just wanted to add that they never mentioned the weather as a factor...
Believe me, I don't want dead quail either. The problem is they had a whole month to let me know there was a problem. Also, couldn't they find SOMEONE to get the quail to me overnight (FedEx maybe, I don't know)? If they had called me the day after I placed my order or even up to a week after...

Them: Oh, it's taking 3 days for the quail to get to you and they'd be in bad shape.
Me: Can't you overnight them?
Them: We'll were trying to overnight them. They have to be overnighted but it's taking 3 days...
They just said that because it takes 3 days to ship to San Antonio, TX that it's unfair to the quail. Can't they overnight them or something? I paid A MONTH AGO!!! They only just called me about it today. I didn't even get to talk to anybody since they left a message. They just flat out...
I'm trying to figure that out. So far, all I'm finding are flight conditioned adults and they're about $4.50 each. I just want babies, and I can flight train them if I ever get that serious. I'm still just sooooooooo mad.
On 25 JUL I ordered 100 quail from McMurray. They were almost out for the year, and after toying around with the idea for some time, I decided to get them while they still had them. They had a delivery of the week of 27 AUG.
I get a message on my phone saying that they're sorry, but it takes...
