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

I think we ordered from them back in 2012, we ordered 6 Australops. One died within an hour of going to get the chicks at the post office, then another one two weeks later. We contacted them and they gave us a refund for the two chicks. They told us sometimes chicks don't make it. One was a male and female that did not make it, first the male then the female. They were out of Texas! We ordered them in July of 2012. We didn't order any specials and our price was about the same price you paid.
 
I just placed my order! I won't be ready until spring (mud season up here) but when I went over to drool over the photos on the Cackle site, there was a notation that as of 2/20, the earliest available ship date is in May. That's when I expect to be ready and I am not a patient woman so I ordered tonight!
 
This is such a fun assortment, I'm so glad you were able to get on the list... May should give you all kinds of goodies :)
 
Mine ships April 6th! I can't wait, I am probably going to end up getting a few more before then from Orschlens chick days.
 
Oh, littlekatzz, I'm such an unattractive shade of green!

You must let us admire your little fluffybutts! Pics ASAP!

I'm fairly new to this whole thing, and I have no clue how anyone can ID the tiny chicks. They all look alike to me and from the assortment I got in August, I cannot see much relationship between the fuzzballs and their adult form/color.

Mine ship March 7th! In the meantime, I'm frantically trying to finish their coop! T-14 days! Yikes - so much to do by then! I'm excited though! I'm a total newb when it comes to chickens and am so excited to branch out! Previously, I've only raised ducks and geese! I hope I have some waterfowl in my box!!!!
