Where to buy USPS Approved Shipping Boxes for Day Old Chicks?

[CatchaTorriFarms]

Ive been searching online for weeks for approved USPS shipping boxes at a reasonable price or wholesale cost. Im having no luck.

Most boxes are standard size, they come in either brown or white in color and they hold chick up to 25, up to 50, up to 100 chicks

If you could provide a source that would be greatly appreciated.

I know of several sources you can buy the boxes from. What would you consider a reasonable price, so I know if you would be interested?

At this point, i don't really have a provider of shipping boxes that i would feel confident shipping the chicks in. I would also be interested in the pads that go in the bottom, thinking the cardboard versus fake straw. So any leads ill take and review their options.

Kindest Regards, Jeffery

Metzer Farms sells the boxes that they themselves ship their birds in. The price is good, and you get a discount the more you buy.

They don't sell the pads, however.

Thank you, do you have any others as a back up source? Those are the boxes im looking for but i would also have to find the pads separately.

Cutler sells another version, and they also sell the pads:

Are the pads included or separate, does that include shipping? I suppose i could direct those questions to themselves just wasnt sure if you knew them from past purchase experiences?

Pads are separate, and so is shipping. Shipping tends to be expensive on these boxes. It's also expensive for the big boxes to ship adult birds in - runs you almost as much as the box itself.
