BIRD GUARANTEE – We appreciate the service of the U.S. Postal Service and the Airlines to provide a way to ship baby poultry to
your post office. Help make sure this works smoothly by providing us with a working phone number for the mailing label. Notify us
within 48 hours of arrival of any birds that may have died. Please report to us the number of live birds and the number of dead birds.
We will, at our discretion, refund or give in-house credit for the purchase price of the dead birds, counting in any extra chicks

For your convenience, we provide a sales-tax estimate during checkout, and on your order confirmation summary. However, many factors can change between the time you place your order and when it ships. Because of this, your final sales-tax charges may be different from the estimated amount.
