I split an order with someone so that there would be more warmth in the box and I ordered 6 snowy mallards this time instead of 3 like last time. They only sent 5 and 3 of them were DOA

Oftentimes it's not the hatchery, but the actual handling. Doesn't matter how QUICK handling was, does matter how rough it is.

I've ordered from ideal many times and never had an issue with an abnormal number being DOA. Most of my orders are complete plus extras, and are sturdy upon arrival. Since you had such a high loss, call them and let them know - they WILL replace them at no charge.

Next time order from www.metzerfarms.com

I have ordered from metzers several times but I specifically wanted snowy mallards. I am getting ready to send in orders to Sand Hill Preservation Center and Holderread
