Cackle hatchery's Hatchery Surprise- Anybody got this before?

[tookietoo]

I know me too! My husband is hoping for ducks. Lol. I'm like you, I want a nice variety of chickens and some turkeys.

Mine are a almost two weeks old... Only 1 Silkie died, and it wasn't at my house, it was one my sister-in-law took. Mine are all going great. Sorry they are a little blurry, I was shooting through the window so they wouldn't all run away.

I hope for no waterfowl, I have enough of them, haha. Really I just want chickens and turkeys. I didn't know I could put in the comments I didn't want waterfowl, but if I do get some, I'm sure it won't be hard to find them new homes.

Lol. Yes that's how I feel about the water fowl. But, my husband is already getting ready with a pool. Lol. He was fussing about the surprise until he realized the variety. Then he turned into a big ol' kid.

The invoice shows a shipping date. Do they send another email with a tracking number for the babies being shipped?

Awe shucks! Invoice said ship 4/23/14 at 5:00am and no new email yet!

Sometimes I get mine at 8 am and sometimes I don't get it until 10 pm. For the regular order I got today I got a shipping invoice at 8 am. They were accepted at the Lebanon PO at 10 something. Then there was no movement until 5 something when they went to the Kansas City center. From there they went overnight to Memphis. It took 32 hours from the time stamp in Memphis until I was called this morning. Mind you, I am 2.5 hours from Memphis. Blows my mind.

Awe we are about three and one half hours away from Memphis. Wonder if our birds will travel same path. I just received the shipping email with tracking code. I'm so excited just ready to have them here!
