Frequently Asked Questions
-
Can you ship baby chicks with baby ducks and geese?
Our chicks and waterfowl are hatched in different facilities and therefore, cannot be shipped together. If you would like for your waterfowl and chicks to arrive the same week, be sure to choose the same shipping week for your waterfowl and baby chick orders when you checkout. -
How old will my chicks be when I get them?
Your chicks will be less than 72 hours old. They ship Mondays and Tuesdays as soon as they're hatched. They can arrive any day of the week between Tuesday and Thursday, depending on your location and how the Post Office services your area. -
