Don't buy from Efowl

[Gagirly]

That is scarey. I have an order with them for 6 call ducks. They emailed me a shipping date of 6/4. I hope there will be no problems.

I just got my email saying that my chicks will be shipped may 14, so heeres to crossing your fingers!!

Oh wow, I hope all your chicks ship safely! I placed an order almost 2 weeks ago for 15 assorted chicks and saw on the website that the availability ranged from 1-3 weeks. It was a little disappointing that they couldn't provide an estimated ship date or update me until this Monday when I got an email saying my order had shipped and was followed up by a phone call to ensure I was ready for the chicks. I just received my chicks (they threw in 2 extra) this morning and they all seem pretty happy and healthy at the moment.

Oh wow! I cannot even imagine opening a box to all dead chicks! How sad! Good to know about efowl.

This is what USPS told me. Sometimes they will update the status of your shippment, and often times not. I'm just saying that this part is not there fault, it is usps. I had a shipment of 12 blue Marans chicks they were estimated to arrive in 2 days. After not getting a call on the morning of the 3rd day I started to panic. I called usps and they told me you can't use confirmation #'s to track a package (they had no updates when I tried the #), and they really had no way of knowing where the package was. The box finally arived on the third day but the chicks didnt make it.

Per the USPS website Priority Mail does NOT offfer tracking, Express Mail does. Both offer delivery confirmation.

I am so sorry to hear of all your chick loses, and thank you for the 411 on efowl, I will not use them. I have only ordered eggs from owners of Nankin Bantams, from Alabama, Calif. sent USPS the eggs got to me in tip top shape, and then I hatched them.

I'll have to cross my fingers. I have a shipping date of May 9th, 26 coming.

I'm happy to report that I received my call duck ducklings safe and sound ! They are extremely active and noisy. I love it ! I really liked that they had a plastic feeder with grow-gel in it for their trip. They were delivered the week that was given to me by Efowl. I got 2 grey, 2 white, and 2 snowy in my order. I'm very pleased and would make another call duck order, but they are sold out for the year.

Mine also arrived a ok. One extra for the trip, but I lost one after 2 days. Still, not too bad. The chicks were covered in the grow gel, they were all green, but nothing serious.

I ship hatching eggs all over the US and priority mail does come with tracking....you have to pay extra for it.....try to order your chicks from the closest hatchery to you....they have a better chance of making it......USPS has UPS delivering their priority packages....FedX does their Express mail....good luck to all of you....It's just not like it use to be with the USPS....
