Thank you for taking the time to review our little Ancona babies! We are so happy to hear they are doing well and bringing you happiness! Thank you for your kind words for our Flock Care Specialists as well! My Pet Chicken hopes to help you with your flock needs in the future!
“One of my Ancona arrived dead,the other passed the next day.Not blaming MPC I know it happens,just made me sad because I was looking forward to this breed since I have n vet owned before”
We are so sorry for your losses, and are always here to give advice to help you care for weak chicks. Our live arrival guarantee covers any chick that was lost during transit, and even covers those chicks that were promptly picked up at the post office and properly cared for, and whose loss is reported to My Pet Chicken before the notification deadline elapses.
“Absolutely the cutest little yellow and black chicks. The chicks arrived in a box with bedding and a heating pad. All chicks were healthy and are continuing to thrive.”
“My Ancona baby chick arrived to me in what seemed like good condition. After day 3 I could see there was something wrong with her. She would have a hard time getting food, she lost her balance and footing. Others would not let her drink or eat so we would feed her separately. After week 1 we finally realized why our Ancona was not growing and eating or showing the same energy that all the others would show. She had a twisted neck. She can only turn right and that was why she had a hard time getting to the food crate and water bowl. I read that this was because she had some type of disease that makes the neck go sideways or backward. I was disappointed to discover this as I was really interested in having this breed of chicken. I am keeping my weird Ancona and she is growing strong now. She is in week 3 and is now fighting for her place in the food bowl. She flies out of the breeder and stands up for herself against her sisters. My biggest concern is whether or not we will be able to eat her eggs with her having this disease. In any case, this was the only issue we had with our flock. Other than that we are happy with our chicks.”
