Straight Run is Straight Run
PFF is not responsible if you end up with more cockerels than you prefer. If you buy straight run chicks you’re buying unsexed chicks. We are unable to sex silkies.
PACKAGING
NPIP AI & PT Certified: 22-441-E
Along with your order there will be a copy of the Npip VS form 9-3 for your own records and a copy that will also be sent to the state as a requirement.
(Will also be emailed)
We charge a flat rate of $60 for sending a box of up to 25 standard size day-old chicks via usps priority mail express. we will email you the tracking number when the birds ship; do not use the estimated date/time as a scheduled arrival time! Please note that day-old chicks are not required to be shipped priority express and many hatcheries do not use this service. Usps priority mail express is the fastest domestic service available from the usps. Although we pay for this express service, we do not guarantee that your shipment will be delivered overnight. Just before hatching, chicks absorb their yolk sac which provides them with enough nutrients to sustain them for their first few days of life. We also include grogel, chick feed, and heat packs (if needed) in the box to prepare them for shipment. Please remember that our 48-hour live chick guarantee will ensure that you will be reimbursed for any chicks that pass within 48 hours after they arrive. (Only covers the birds you ordered not extras)
We will try our best to add in an extra chick or two free with each order to ensure you get the amount of birds you ordered. But, it is not guaranteed.
Before your chicks arrive…
!! PLEASE READ !!
VACCINATIONS AND DISEASE
Unless you specifically request otherwise your birds will be vaccinated for Marek’s disease. This vaccination is free of charge and strongly encouraged. Please note that the Marek’s vaccine is not 100% effective, and even vaccinated birds may later contract Marek’s if the disease is present on your property. Marek’s is very common in backyard flocks.
48-HR LIVE CHICK GUARANTEE
If you place an order for six or more day-old chicks we guarantee that you will receive the number of chicks you ordered and that they will live for 48 hours after receiving them. If you have fewer live birds than you ordered within 48 hours after delivery, we will reimburse you the value of the dead birds. We do not send replacement birds. To get your refund you must notify us of the loss within 48 hours after you receive the birds and provide an emailed photo of any dead birds. This will be strictly enforced. If you do not pick up your chicks on the day they are available for pick up the 48-hour live guarantee will no longer be in place.
Full payment is due before the birds are shipped.
It is difficult to precisely predict laying rates, fertility rates, and hatch rates, especially when dealing with small numbers of rare animals. We will try our very best to accurately estimate delivery dates, but it is only an estimate, and we can be wrong. You should know that when you buy rare birds it is common to wait several months for delivery.
PICKING UP YOUR CHICKS
It is your responsibility to pick up your chicks from the post office as soon as they arrive. You will receive your shipping confirmation email once your eggs have shipped. Your local post office will call you when your order is available to be picked up. Keep a flexible schedule the week of your shipment. Expect that your chicks will arrive 1-3 after your ship date. If you do not pick up your chicks on the day they are available the 48-hour live guarantee will fall out of play.
We would love to get your feedback based on your order or any suggestions. That way we can improve.
Thanks and we wish you and your new flock additions well🐣
ORDER CANCELLATION
If we do not ship the birds by the estimated ship date, you may cancel your order and immediately receive a full refund. If you cancel your order for any reason other than our inability to timely ship you will forfeit 25% of the cost. There is a lot of behind the scenes labor that goes into every single order. This cancellation fee applies as soon as you complete your purchase so please be confident with your order before you place it. here are no exceptions to this policy.
We do not offer refunds beyond the 48-Hour Live Chick Guarantee.
NO ON PROPERTY PICKUP
We take biosecurity very seriously, and farm visits expose our flocks to the potential diseases. We simply can't take that risk, so we don't schedule pickup orders on the farmstead. Thank you for understanding.
