I'm going to jump in on this because I'm curious. I ordered several Ameraucanas from them. You said they are actually Easter Eggers? What's the difference between Easter Eggers and them? It wasn't until recently I heard of Easter Egg layers. We had Ameracucanas growing up so when I saw them I ordered them.

Easter Eggers are mutts that lay blue and green eggs, they are not a pure breed

Most of the time they have reasonable shipping rates because they add the "small order fee" of $7 per order. My 16 chick order was $36 and some change, and with SOF + shipping it was $52. That is a pretty good deal. Oh, when I ordered 25 last year I got 5 extra "packing peanuts" and all 30 arrived healthy! I raised them all, not losing any and that is a miracle as I had never touched a chick(en) before! I love Ideal!!
