Anyone getting chicks shipped from Meyer today? Want to wait with me?

[bikefreak]

I ordered from them in early March. (well ordered in Dec for delivery in early march)

Mine took two days to arrive in freezing temps (20-35 deg). (shipped Mon PM arrived Wed AM) All 15 arrived healthy, wealthy and wise. Well maybe just healthy. I've been very happy with them. I kept 4 and they are still doing well.

They called me the day of shipping to do a replacement. (no blue laced red wyandotte, got a black copper maran instead) I picked Meyer because of the BLRW (and low ship quantities) so a little bummed at the time but I knew when I ordered I had the last "planned" chick to hatch. So I'll try again when I order next time. (in 2013)

I'm excited about the chocolate eggs though.

Good luck with your shipment.

I just checked the tracking number and it says in transit. Now my stomach is in knots anxiously awaiting 12 healthy chicks.

My tracking # says:
Processed through Sort Facility, April 04, 2011, 3:41 pm, MANSFIELD, OH 44901

My stomach is in knots too! What is wrong with us? LOL

"currently in transit to the destination"

OMG!

Mine are supposed to be shipped from Meyer on May 2! I was raised on a farm, but haven't seen a live chicken in decades. Ordered 5 SL Wyandottes, 5 Barred PR, and 5 Partridge Rocks. Reason is I want them relatively peaceful, docile, and able to survive the harsh winters here in northern Wisconsin. Lordie! It was snowing pretty good again today!

I saw today online that mine have been shipped today and they added a tracking #. I think I have checked the tracking number a dozen times by now! Very excited. We ordered 4 golden buff pullets.

Mine ship next week. I hope they remember to put in a heat pack!
