I ordered 2 Ancona pullets, 1 RIR, and 1 Partridge Penedesenca several months ago from MPC.  I decided three weeks before the ship date that I wanted to change the order.  It took a while to get someone on the phone as it was the first week of hatching and really busy there, but once I did the man who helped me with my order was above and beyond helpful.

 

My region got hit by a snowstorm that delayed shipping one day so one of the Easter Eggers  I added to the order was DOA.  I was frankly surprised to see any of them alive, so counted myself lucky.  I emailed two days later to ask about the leg color of the chicks I'd ordered as I'd thought Penedesenca have slate shanks.  I was worried that it might have been this one that didn't make it.  I was delighted to hear back from them right away, expressing regret that one of my birds had died, sending me a refund, and letting me know that the Penedesenca has pinkish yellow shanks.  Whew!

 

I would strongly recommend this hatchery and would shop with them again in the future should I need any chicks that the feed store doesn't carry. 

1 chihuahua, Gizmo;  1 DD who's  19 and 1 fabulous DH.  1 Welsumer, 1 Sicilian Buttercup, 1 White Leghorn, 1 Partridge Penedesenca, 1 Rhode Island Red, 3 Easter Egger, 1 Ancona, 1 Giant Barred Cochin, and 1 Golden Sexlink,  all pullets as far as I know.
