Bonnie I think that some of them simply succumb to stress. That's a hard trip. (they came from the states right?) That "accidental" shipment I got came all alive but I lost 7 withing 3 days. The stronger ones make it better I think, but its tough on the weaker ones.
Yes, I ordered from Ideal.
Mine were all alive too, one I knew wouldn't make it. But now it's official, I have lost 4 out of 17. I think if they had used packing peanuts they might have made it, but who knows?
The ones Ideal sent me by mistake were packed together in the box. They don't need food or water for a few days, and I think the P.O. did a good job for their part, but that has to be a stressful trip. I need to get over there and see your flock! We are on hold here with Dad so I've not gone far, but I will head over there on Tuesday if I can. I'd love to see them all, and your coop!
