Cackle Hatchery Delivery did not make it on the 2nd day??

They are supposed to be ok for 72 hours after hatch. Call your post office, they get a delivery late in the day, maybe they will be in then. Ask them to call you ASAP they come in. Check on them IN the Post Office in front of a Postal employee. If things don't work out, does Cackle have a guarantee live delivery policy?

I hope you get them safe and sound!

 

Hoping everything goes well.

I ordered Brown Leghorns and salmon faverolles last year from Cackle. They got delievered late and lost a couple, then lost a couple the next few days. I emailed Cackle and they said to call back on Monday with a final count of dead chicks. I did and they refunded my money. It was very hot when they came too, in the 90's.

 

I have found the PO to be very unreliable. I have had chicks and adult birds "missent" before. What really gets me is how the heck do you missent live birds??

I hope they get there soon!

 

I think that you will get an early morning call and they will be fine! Make sure you have everything set up and ready to go. (I did a trial run with my light to check the temperature, etc. ) Keep us posted!

 

I have had chicks arrive at my post office in the afternoon on the truck with the priority mail. The Post office called me around 3:00pm and told me my chicks had just arrived and I could come get them.

 

I have ordered from cackle and meyer. With cackle they shipped wednesday morning and all 55 arrived well and healthy on friday morning! With Meyer they shipped wednesday morning and they arrived Saturday with 1 of the 54 DOA I ordered 50 meaties and 53 arrived great and well!

So glad they arrived safe and sound!
