Wow! I am having a similar experience.Be glad they didn't ship.
I ordered 15 Rudd Rangers and 5 Black Jersey Giants in early January.
Thursday morning I received an email (12:06 AM) stating that they had shipped on Wednesday.
They finally arrived at my local PO box (West Palm Beach, FL) Saturday morning. It looked like they were only coming from Decatur, Ga. and spent a couple days in ATL.
However, there were only 10 Rudd Rangers packed. Of those four were DOA. One of those was outside the foam blocker.
I lost a Black Jersey Giant yesterday afternoon and another Rudd Ranger this morning. I have another RR I'm watching. Could be I just caught it at naptime. The remaining eight seem to be currently running around like maniacs, so that is good. But the RR seemed good this AM as well.
I'm pretty sick as this is my first time trying baby chicks and yeah "they're just chicks", but I feel personally responsible to do all I know to do for the animals in my charge while I have them.
Ordered 10 Calico Princess and 5 Sapphire olive-eggers that were supposed to ship 1-31.
They finally arrived on Saturday in central FL (Lake Wales).
Post Office didn't call but text alerts saved me.
Got the birds at 10 AM.
Have already had 2 of each variety die (one nearly DOA, only made it an hour or so).
The really crappy thing is they won't replace any less than a 15 bird loss.
I'm going to see if TSC will let me order some through them.
Good luck.
