I have a sexed pair of Toulouse goslings from Ideal Poultry! They, and 12 little packing peanut chicks were delivered this morning!
(Pictures later, I promise - I am at work right now.)
These are my surprise goslings, as I saw they were "out until 2012" on the Ideal website. Filled out the Notify Me thing, got a call the next day, provided information, and was told if they got some they'd send me the pair I requested. Didn't hear from them again.
Friends of mine and I went in on an order of chicks and those arrived this morning, shipped yesterday. I thought, hmmmmmmm, and called Ideal. Well, yes, we shipped your pair of sexed Toulouse goslings yesterday.
Whoa! So I called my UPS Store (where I maintain my mailing address) to warn them.
45 minutes later they called me: Linda, they're here!
I had to wait for my lunch break, dash over, get the peeping and whistling box, rush home and throw together a quick brooder, take the EcoGlow out of one other brooder where a pair of D'Uccles really don't need the heat any more, and plop it into the Rubbermaid bin for the newest group of babies. Food, water, and supplemental heat, good to go. And head back to work.
I got my goslings!!!!
