I received 10 healthy chicks. They are all still doing well 5 weeks later. One has some curled toes that I wasn’t able to fully correct, but she’s getting around just fine. The only issue really is that I wasn’t sent the Golden Comets I ordered! The chicks I have are Cinnamon Queens. Very cute, just a slightly different variety of sex link hybrid. I did not ask for a replacement because I think they will do great for what we wanted, which is laying hens. I appreciated that the chicks were sent within a couple weeks of ordering, as ordering directly from the hatcheries right now means a long wait. I also had a good experience when I called Tractor Supply to ask about my order, they were helpful and gave an estimated arrival date.
