All babies arrived alive and well… but, my only complaint.. the hatchery put my contact info on the side of the box and not the top and the post office claimed they couldn’t find my contact info anywhere on the box (I found it no problem on the side of the outside) so they put the chicks of for delivery and they had been on a cold truck for over 3 hours before I was able to chase my mailman down. I watch your tracking number closely..

Oh my goodness!!! This was our very first time ever purchasing any farm animals ever let alone chicks. We are absolute novices lol. We researched so much what we thought would be the best chickens to start with. And honestly as a born and raised city girl, I never ever knew that you could order chicks to be delivered. And they came in a box!!! Well, all of that said I must say that we have been beyond pleased and blessed and grateful. First of all Tractor Supply has been so amazing and answered so many of our questions and concerns. We couldn’t have done it without them. They helped us get everything that we needed by holding our hands and educating us on all the items needed to start and literally walked us through the store showing us what we needed. We were also made aware that some of the chicks may not survive, which was really hard for us because we were animal people. With all that said, all of our chicks came, and they were all doing very well. They all survived and now it’s two weeks later and they’re doing great and they have been doing great since the day they arrived. We are so happy with our choices and so thankful to have done this little adventure. It’s been so much fun. They’re still in our house and they are in their little chicken brood. But hopefully we will be as prepared and successful to move them out to their permanent chicken coop once they are old enough. We are hoping that we will have just as much joy and as much luck with them then. We would totally do it all over again, and we are thankful that our first experience has been so great. Thank you Tractor Supply and thank you to Hoover Hatchery.
