I'm sorry for all the losses of chicks.
A great deal of the issues have to do with the weather this time of year. All the posts about DOA chicks always start showing up this time of the year. In most cases it's just too cold out to be shipping chicks. If people would order early for shipment later on in the season a lot of these dead chicks could be avoided. There was a thread on this exact subject a month or so ago that unfortunately became argumentative and was locked. It had a lot of good points in it about shipping chicks.
