“Our cream legbar (who recently passed at almost 4 years old) was an odd one. Healthy from the day she arrived and fantastic, consistent layer of beautiful medium blue eggs. She was tolerant of the other chickens and of my kids. But for some reason, she absolutely hated me and was just so mean! I couldn't go out in the yard without her chasing me down to peck me. We haven't ordered another out of concern that it would take a dislike to one of the kids or one of the other chickens.”
“Both of the Legbar chicks arrived dead in the box - we had a total of 8 dead out of 12 that we ordered. The chicks arrived quickly and we picked them up within 30 minutes of getting the call from the post office. Doubt we'll order chicks in the mail again. We had several die in a Fall order as well despite ten years of positive experiences with My Pet Chicken. I'm not sure if it's an issue with them or the Post Office, but I'd rather just get them locally and not deal with the loss due to shipping.”
We're so sorry to hear that you lost three of the babies from your recent order. Our team will be reaching out to you via email shortly with more information.
“Our sweet little Cream Legbar arrived the smallest of the bunch. She totally makes up for it with her sweet personality! She's gentle and kind, at the bottom of the pecking order of our mixed breed flock, but seems to be fine right where she is. She hasn't laid yet (she's way too young still), but even if she never laid an egg I wouldn't trade her for the world!”
“I ordered 4 babies (cream Legbar, Partridge Olive Egger, Green Queen Easter Egger and Golden Laced Polish) and they arrived healthy and strong the day after hatching. MPC was fantastic to work with. They allowed me to change my order a few times without any issues and spent lots of time with me on the phone helping me pick breeds based off my climate and preferences. They shipped on the Monday I chose and sent me tracking that evening. I was able to see they had arrived at the USPS Distribution center 20 min from on Tuesday morning, so instead of waiting for them to be transported to my local post office the following day I just drove over and intercepted them. They were packed perfectly and warm chirping away. It's been a week now and all of them are thriving! Hoping everything is correct with Sexing/breeds but I do trust a company like MPC to ensure customers get exactly what they asked for. I will absolutely order chicks through MPC again in the future.”
