Probably within the next 2-3 days, as that is as long as they can survive on their nutritional yolk.

Have pedialyte or Sav-a-chick ready for their water... They will be stressed from the shipping..

I ordered chicks from McMurray. They hatched Sat. and I received them at 8 am this morning

. I did loose one, but they had sent me a free chick of the same breed and color. All the rest are doing great! They're eating, drinking, and doing their little chickie thing. I'm sure your fuzzy butts will arrive safe and sound.....good luck with the last leg of your wait

My are also from McMurray...hatched on a Friday . I received a call from the post office @ the crack of dawn on Monday morning. 3rd order from them and never had any problemd with shipping/delivery or chick health. Good Luck and enjoy them.

That all depends on how many you ordered and where you live. If you order less than 15 they go express mail so they should be there tomorrow. If you ordered 15 or more then add a day or two.

We had a delivery that hatched last Monday and arrived in NY on Wednesday. 15 happy and LOUD little hens-to-be.

This was our 5th order with MPC and we have always been thrilled with their service and the health and quality of their chicks.

Good luck with your new brood!

I ordered from Ideal Poultry. I ordered 12, and paid the $1.75 insurance so that they would not send any 'packing peanuts' all 12 arrived safe and sound on a Thursday morning (they shipped Tue from Tx) we didn't loose any either. MPC is very careful to ship them correctly, you probably won't have anything to worry about as far as loosing one.

I ordered from Meyer and they hatched on a Monday and I had them Wednesday morning at 6:30. I have an order in with my pet chicken as well, but won't get those until June.
