That's crazy! We got our new ducklings yesterday, it took about 2 days for them to ship from California to Vermont & the post office call me to pick them up @ 6:15 in the morning (thank goodness I'm an early riser) the original delivery date per the tracking was the following day (today)
They are all settled in at home. I could hear them as soon as the postal worker opened the door. The Rouen was 1 week & 4 days at arrival while the Cayugas were 4 days old on arrival. Eating and drinking plenty, and making puddles when they can from their drinking water
Thanks! To be honest this is my first time with any agricultural birds & we went all out with both ducks & chickens. And have purchased way more than initially agreed upon for this year. (Mainly me, I've been adding to the numbers
). And we are both essential workers so we've been building the chicken coop, duck coop & respective runs on weekends we've had off. Which have come few & far between due to my husband being call out for storm restoration work
