We here in Wisconsin got ours from Cackle Hatchery. I watched the tracking once Cackle notified me they were shipping and once arrived the Post Office called me. All went well.Old post and thread i know....but we are desperate to find silkies in maine, we tried once to ship live birds but the shipper didn't even attempt to protect them and all 8 perished....sad. sad
Ordered 5 got 6. 1 died not sure of what, but we tried keep it alive. The other got squished. My fault I should have been a little more prepared since the chickens we got were a mixed bag of chickens.
