All chicks are shipped via USPS Priority Mail. USPS is the only carrier which accepts live poultry. 

Yes it is! We have a very good working relationship with USPS, thus it is very safe to have your chicks shipped. We rarely run into shipment issues, but if one does occur, please take a picture of the box, with the chicks in it at your post office, and have a postal employee witness it. Please send us the picture and we will file a claim with USPS. We will also work with USPS to determine what was the cause of the issue. We will always follow up with you and make things right, if an issue does occur.

Please take a picture of the box, at the post office, and have a USPS employee witness it. Send us the picture and we will follow up with you. We will refund the dollar amount lost, for any DOA chicks received. A picture is required to receive a credit. 

Yes we do! Weather can certainly pose issues throughout the year, fortunately, we are well prepared. We have summer boxes, as well as winter boxes. We determine the proper box to use for your order, by recording the high and low temperature of your location, for the expected arrival date, on the fulfillment label on your chick box, and then selecting the appropriate box. For extremely cold locations, we can also utilize specialized insulating pads, and heat packs.

Typically we put 25 chicks in a 25 ct. box, 50 chicks in a 50 ct. box, and 100 chicks in a 100 ct. box. However depending upon the weather, and the quantity of chicks that you order, this may vary. In very warm weather, we will usually put a maximum of 15 chicks in a 25 ct. box, 30 chicks in a 50 ct. box, and 80 chicks in a 100 ct. box.

That depends. If you are placing a single order (for only one hatch date) payment will be processed immediately. If you are placing orders for multiple hatch dates (usually to qualify for special bulk pricing), payment will be processed the day before, or the day of hatch. You will only pay per hatch date. Orders will not be shipped without payment.

If we attempt to process payment, and the payment declines, we will contact you immediately. If you placed a single order and payment declines, we will attempt to contact you. We will not place your order until payment processes successfully.

If you placed orders for multiple hatch dates and payment declines, we will contact you immediately. If payment is not able to be processed successfully by 12:00 PM (PT) on the hatch date, your order will not be shipped, unless you call us and make arrangements for payment. Please call us immediately if you have reason to believe that a payment might decline.

We accept only credit/debit cards for ship orders. Pickup orders or feed store orders, may be paid for by credit/debit card, cash, or by check, upon prior approval. Call us if you would like to pay in cash or by check, for pickup or feed store orders. The default payment method is credit/debit card. We accept all major credit/debit card providers. A full list of carriers is provided at the bottom of each page.

No, we do not. None of our chicks are vaccinated using antibiotics. As we supply a commercial organic customer, this is standard practice for us. We are not allowed to use any antibiotics.

We include Marek's vaccination in each chick that we sell. We do not charge extra for that vaccination. We do however, offer optional additional vaccinations, which do cost extra.

Unfortunately, we do not. We display all available varieties on our website. We do not drop ship from other hatcheries.

For Cornish Cross, we ship 4% extra in each order. For all other varieties we usually will include 1 or 2 extra chicks per box. If we run short on a hatch, we will withold extra chicks to avoid shorting customers.

Please call us. We take customer satisfaction very seriously. If you receive anything other than what you ordered, please call us immediately. On your fulfillment label, on the side of each box, should be an initial belonging to the person responsible for the correct fulfillment of your order. Please let us know what the initial on your label is, we will make sure to make things right. 

We no longer have the box fee. All charges are included in the price per chick.

Yes, they usually do. If you plan to raise your chicks on conventional feed, use a 21% protein chick starter, crumble. Feed this for 10 days, leaving feed out all the time. After 10 days, transition to a lower protein "broiler grower" ration. Take care to restrict feeding. Typically it is suggested to leave feed out for 12 hours, then take it away for 12 hours. This will help to slow the growth rate for Cornish Cross.
