I would order from them again. My rir's that I got a couple of months ago arrived very healthy and are doing very well. It's just one of those things.

Too many variables when chickens come by mail.

Good! Yes I love CACKLE personally...and will always order from them. I wasnt really saying that to you so much as the person who said

are you kidding me? sheesh, reason enough not to order from cackle!

If everyone did that to ever hatchery they recieved dead chicks from I'm pretty sure NOO hatchery would still be open.
Good Luck with the little ones!

I like Cackle. I ordered Light Brahmas and Salmon Favorelles from them in mid-march. They came April 5th (i think).

They birds are very nice quality. The Light Brahmas have nice clean white backs, which I have heard it hard to find.

Their prices are reasonable also, and I like how the sex the rare breeds.

I would call them about the dead chicks.

Well, here's the rub.........they were alive when we got them. Died shortly after....like 30 minutes. They sent an extra one. So, I ended up with 24. The shipping was the big charge........Not worried about a $1.plus loss.

I like 'em. It's ok.

They're cute....my biggest issue is doing meat birds........BUT...In an emergency..........there's a butcher shop here.

Thanks

 

[SundownWaterfowl]

Oh. Well, at least you ended up with 24. Are you going to post any pictures?

 

[Calebs Acre]

I realize that you're happy, but JUST IN CASE, in the future. The guarantee is for LIVE HEALTHY chicks, according to the statement. Those two were NOT healthy, so, in the future, if you have "lingering" chicks, get the signature and let them know, even if you don't do it for just one chick.

Good luck with the rest of them! Can't wait to see pictures!

 

[mtnhomechick]

Well..........I'm OK with it.

I will not take pics. This is my first experience with MEAT chicks...........so, I am trying to see them in a different light than " My Girls ". Hope you all understand.

My husband is a bit disappointed that I ordered them....getting a bit of heat here.

Thanks.
