If you have called MPC and even gotten any sort of response (like a live human being), consider yourself lucky, LOL. Many people over the last few months have had issues with them and not been able to get a single response. I ordered several birds from them over the summer, including several Silkies. A couple of the Silkies died in the first 24 hours and several of the birds were not sexed right. The Silkies are not old enough to know "for sure", but several of the birds in my group (it wasn't all Silkies) are already confirmed roos. I have posted about another Silkie previously that we suspect is a roo and most people here have agreed that he probably is. If that bird (let alone any of the others that are still gender ambiguous) is a roo, then they got 50-60% of the remaining birds correct. It is hard to say an exact percentage since a couple died and a few are still too ambiguous to tell.
At any rate, of the remaining birds that have done well, FAR more than 10% were roos. I have ordered straight run and done nearly as well.
