Either you got someone else's order. Or they threw in a bunch of Roos to get rid of them. Do you see the 9 you actually originally ordered?

Ideal's policy for small orders is to add "packing peanuts", excess males, to keep the pullet chicks warm during shipping. 9 chicks don't generate enough body heat to tolerate shipping. So, they add males or you can pay extra for a heat pack.Either you got someone else's order. Or they threw in a bunch of Roos to get rid of them. Do you see the 9 you actually originally ordered?
Ya I may start ordering my small orders from them. I also can keep Roos. And the extra will get a great life on my 8 acre farm until it's time for the crock pot. I have four roosters running around now. Soon to be 3 ones getting a bit aggressive. Witch is unfortunate cause he's a beautiful black Minorca.It was the "surprise package" I ordered 7 pullets and 2 roos. I don't mind the extras as the roos will make nice fryers or a nice addition for my smoker. I will be able to keep the best roos. I don't live in the city
I ordered the 25 "Surprise Special" from Ideal and they sent 27!!! I was thrilled with mine and they were super nice to talk with and the Rhode Island Red and Barred Rock I hoped were there!
