ordering chicks online

[Nanny Linn]

I, too, was a little skittish about ordering babies online. However, all has turned out well. My 5 (now 3 week olds) "toddlers" and happy and healthy. I believe they were born on a Sunday, shipped on Monday, and my postman delivered them to my door on tuesday! I am now the proud Mama of 2 Wyandotts, 2 Brahmas, and 1 Barred Rock!

I can confirm this; ordered three straight from Meyer this year. Shipping was around $30 *but* unless you're set up for processing, and ready to deal with meaties, it's probably a better deal to order 3 than ordering 25 and hoping you get your money back in meat or sold birds.

Add me to the list.....love MPC. Ordered things from them like a brooder kit and organic food before I found a local source. Just ordered chicks from them and they arrived on time and in perfect condition. I only needed a few and they arrived in this ingenious box with a little heating pad inside. They guarantee sex @ 90% which is very good. My chicks are 2 weeks old today and doing great! Go for it....get some fuzzy butts.

Thanks for all the input. I was considering cancelling my order but now my faith is restored.
