I ordered 20 assorted keets from Meyer Hatchery, they shipped 23.
Now their website says they ship poultry so it arrives at your PO:
Poultry are shipped for arrival at your local Post Office Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday.
Today is Monday, they are in Ohio and I am in Michigan, but the shipping label says 7/25, that's FRIDAY.
I haven't called them yet because some of the keets are still gasping and I figure I'll lose more. (6 were DOA at the PO, 2 more died within 4 hours).
So, here's my question: How accurate are the dates on those shipping labels? Do you think they really shipped them on Friday?!! Was this box sitting in some warehouse all day Sunday?!!
No way they shipped from Ohio today and got to my PO by 10 am. Not unless they drove them here by leaving at 1 am.
I've also got chicks coming, the hatch date is supposed to be today. I sure hope those get here okay.
