Quote: Thank you. I was kind of thinking that as well. The last one is refrigerated, so we may do that. Thanks again.

Thank you. I would have normally thought pile up was an issue as well, but we split them into two brooders when we got them because the size difference was so obvious. That and the ones that died in the box were older ones, not younger ones. Who knows. It probably was just a combination of...

Hey Everyone... So, with mixed feelings, I think my situation with Greenfire is resolved as good as it's going to get. I awoke to a refund from Paypal for the amount of the chicks that had died as of yesterday. For that, I am thankful. I think they knew they were in the wrong and that was...

Thank you all again for the encouraging comments. I'm so glad to know that my perceptions about this deal were not off. They were shipped Express, Danny, and surprisingly they only took one day to get here. I mentioned that on my other thread too. That is the funny thing, this is the first...

Okay, I will say since several people have encouraged me to do so that the breeder in question was Greenfire Farms. I don't take lightly posting something negative about a business like this and everyone can make up their own minds about whether or not to purchase from them. All of my...

Thanks, Tuffoldhen. I emailed them back just now and said that I think they should refund all the chicks that have died. The other ones that were surviving after shipment, I was able to get to live to about 4 days, but they just never rebounded enough to live. I agree with you that there...

Thanks, Kathy. I just replied to your PM before I saw your message here. The largest chicks didn't even make the trip. They were dead in the box and then I lost chicks of various sizes upon arrival. It makes me wonder how old even the smallest ones were. I have never seen a malnourished...

Hey Everyone- I thought I would post an update here on my Lavender Orps since a few different people from this thread have PM'ed me about the situation. The 5 that are still living have done a little better each day. I think they are going to end up making it at this point. I am rather...

Beth G. : Lost one of my 2yro Lav Split Orp's tonight. She died due to an incident with my horse being a clumpsey and not looking before she backed up over her. Poor betsy you will be missed Oh no, Beth! I'm so sorry to hear that.

Thank you, Beth and Hinkjc.... So far, no more losses today. Still no word back from the breeder either. I am not sure what to do. I saved a couple of the dead chicks in case I decide to send them off for necropsy, but I really am more inclined to think this is something that happened in...

Ah... I'm so sad. After wanting them for so long, I finally got some Lavender Orp chicks (I have another thread going about the situation). I got them the end of last week and when I opened the box, a couple were dead and the rest were all in very bad shape. I don't know what happened to...
