The only thing I could think of, is they had a rougher travel? Or this chick was just weaker to begin with, or maybe even had something wrong with it? I got it eating and drinking and moving around, and then went back up and it was already dead. Something about the way it looked made me think it was going to die. Just a gut feeling... but it pooped normally, and was eating/drinking... so I'm thinking that no matter what I would have done, it probably was going to die anyways.

I probably won't order through my-pet-chicken again, just because their shipping rates are 2x of cackle hatchery, and they didn't send me any extras to cover if one or two chicks died from the shipping.. which I appreciate. Cackle always sends extras! LOL

I'm lucky enough to have a feed store close that brings in a large variety of chicks during season. Cost a little
more but worth it. I've still lost one or two in the process. They get most of theirs from Murray McMurray. Problem with this feed store anyone, including wandering kids, can access the chicks even though they are in large drawers.
