Hi Everyone 
I've read some great things about Estes here, and since they are not far from me and carry the breeds I want I've been trying to order from them. Trying, because no one there seems to want to take my order... I've called twice, gone into the store once and emailed twice. I first called and emailed a week ago, wanting to get my chicks today or as early as possible. I have never gotten an email back, the first time I called the man who answered was in a hurry to get off the phone, which I excused because it was a hatch day, so when I went in the store to order, instead of writing down my order he told me to call the morning that I wanted them. So I just called and they told me to call back in 3 or 4 hours (instead of writing down what I wanted and either setting it aside for me or calling me back to let me know they didn't have it today.) I fully expect when I call back they will have sold everything. Still no email. Are they usually this way with small orders? Should I go ahead and pay the shipping to order from Meyer? This is my first time getting chicks, I have had everything ready for weeks lol but it doesn't look like I'll be getting any soon
