Hey all, I haven't checked in here in awhile, been crazy busy and dealing with a chick shipping situation. Hope all is well. Is anyone able to help this new member with her duckling?

Update on the Metzer deal- gave them a call. They said the label was prepared on the 10th and that they shipped them on the 12th but since they were 2 days old by then, it was going to be difficult for them to survive with no food or water in the box with them. They were very nice and assured me that this IS NOT THE NORM. I ordered replacements plus two more to make it a flock of a dozen. They ship on the 23rd. Thank you all for your advice. And your sympathy

Thanks for the update. I've actually been to Metzer and they were a great group to deal with. John Metzer came out and showed me how to vent sex, too. Anyway, nothing but nice things to say about them. Happy to hear they're gonna take care of you, but I had a feeling that they would.
