They have thrown in turkeys for me both times I ordered. You'll probably get a couple ducks too. I got a goose last year but then I ordered a bunch of geese in that order.
I brood them all together....until the ducks make too big a mess, anyway!
Replacement chicks arrived safe and sound. All alive!! It was 2 days instead of 3 this time. They had the wrong postal code !
I got more polish and a couple red sex links - I think cinnamon Queens and a couple other chicks I can't tell what they are!! Plus, my Khaki Campbell girls (4) and a...
Speaking of Cackle......Just got off the phone - not only are they replacing the ducks, turkeys and chicks I specifically ordered, they are ALSO replacing the chicks, ducks and turkeys I lost out of the Hatchery Surprise!!!!!!

I'm sure they will - I think they want to give enough time to make sure the rest survive before assessing "damages". I only lost 2 lst year out of the hatchery surprise and one was a bantam that basically got squished in-transit, so I didn't call. But this year I specifically ordered...

Oh, and I did order my...
Just got my book this week - gonna order it again!!!!! But, I'm gonna have to wait til it warms up a bit. We still have our two ducks from the "surprise" from last year. I sold off a lot of my misc. birds to get reorganized this year, but it was so fun to see the assortment that I'm gonna do it...
If it were a goose it would literally be twice the size of your ducks. We got 5 geese (4 ordered, 1 surprise) and they were HUGE compared to everything else.
