- Here a Postal clerk explains that ducks, chickens and turkeys are regularly shipped via United States Mail. He assures us that the ducks (and other critters) remain relatively comfortable as they're being shipped around the country in these containers. According to a note, printed on the shipping carton, these ducks were only a day old at the time of this recording!

I am trying to ship out a giraffe to my friend, so I am wondering if they have a box big enough for a giraffe?
There are a number of size and weighty limitations...
GAHAHA
Did you try cutting it up
Tell the giraffe to kneel and stay put! Gona ship yo ass like a snake..
OMFG THAT ONE WHO KEPT POKING HIS HEAD OUT IS SO CURIOUS. SO CUTE ^3333^ he trusts you, those are happy peeps he's making :D
They are cute!
As someone who orders my ducks, chicks and turkeys thru mail, I sure hope no mailperson opens the box! Dont touch my birds! LOL
I think this particular box was accidentally damaged in processing as the Postal Service doesn't normally open packages!
@@zeekzilch this is why live animals shouldn't be mailed! Poor babies
@Timothy2035
I am in agreement with you but suspect these animals will be used as food - so very few people care. I, myself, don't eat animals to I do care!
wait a second duckling stew?, no human would do that
Where can I buy some baby ducks?
I don't know but maybe somebody else reading your note has an idea?
Where can I buy a duck online
Yep!
were did you order them from
I would recommend Meyer hatchery they have good service and nice and healthy variety of poultry
Excellent!
Sorry, I didn't order these ducks so have no idea what company they came from.
omg they are so cute. i used to 6 baby ducks but they grew in to big ducks now. i want baby ducks. do you know were you got them from? like a website or something?
Buy baby ducks from India MART.COM
Sorry, I don't know where they came from but I'm sure there are a few dozen dealers available online who can supply them. Best of luck!
*bites* LOL cause you're keeping them in the box!
+Zelda Reben Unfortunately you're correct...
Zelda Reben haha they just got shipped so obv they are gonna be in a box and they are gonna un box them
where is the best website to buy baby ducks?
duck.com
Where can you buy these? Is there a website?
I'm sure there are ducks available on a number of websites - you'll have to go to a search engine and look around a bit!
Indiamart.com
I wish I could order a box of Duckling's, that is a just a box of cuteness and smiles:)
+Brian Smith They are cute!
Yes, they are, that still before the video is priceless!!!
+Brian Smith Thanks!
You're welcome Brother!!! Take Care!!!
+Brian Smith You too Brian!
@swlabr123
I hope you're right...
Where did you get these from?
Sorry, I have no idea - I just happened to be a the Post Office when this employee explained to me what was going on. My guess is you can order duck, chickens, and other animals from all kinds of places...
u can get them from a website called " eFowl" that is where I will b getting my baby ducks
Chloe Shapiro Okay, let us know how it works out!
zeekzilch will do!
+Chloe Shapiro im also geting mine from there but in the corner it says the 2 ducklings im buying there white layer's cost $71.81 for the 2 ducklings i understand the shiping would cost more but $71.81 is meybe a inch to much money to pay for a duckling iv seen websites that sell them cheaper
@zigzagcatzanddogz
Good information - thank you for sharing!
To cute
Alexis Gass Agreed.
Does anyone ship to Canada?
I don't know - you'll have to check with the shippers and the various international regulations. Sorry I don't have better info!
It's pretty common...
I got my ducks this way, it's not a big deal. Why do they necessarily have to be food. Most breeds of ducklings and chicks live on the yolk they eat before hatching for two or three days so they are able to ship them right after hatching, and they arrive a day or two later. I live on the east coast, and mine came from the west coast. A lot of places you buy them locally probably got them this way too, and it helps keep rare breeds alive. Just because it may seem wrong doesn't mean it is.
do you ship out baby ducks
No, I do not ship baby ducks. This video was recorded at a Post Office where the ducks were coming through...
No, I do not ship baby ducks.
💙💙💙💙
I ordered mine and they showed up dead😭 luckily they are sending me more because this almost never happens
Turn uppp yes but I revived two more that were alive but the one died the night we got her but the one that survived buttercup is alive well and gaining followers on her Instagram daily! Buttercup_duck if you are interested
aliecat 05 dang
rekt m8 go follow buttercup_duck on Instagram that's me and I received more and one died the same day don't do this get them from a local feed store
aliecat 05 how???????🤔
I believe it's a federal crime to open another person's mail!
I don’t understand why ppl can’t go to the nearest feed store or tractor supply and purchase ducks/chickens/etc. I’ve been told most of the time there not nailed with food or water and then is some cases they die. How is this not animal cruelty? When I would purchase mine at multiple local feed store they where scared in an opened box. These don’t look scared but I guarantee you this is not always the case.
You’ll never believe how they get to that “local feed store”
They are mailed at 1 day old and no later. Because they still have enough nutrients from the yolk and can go a few days without food. They usually ship them with some grow gel
Plus, online you can pick out what kind of birds you want. When you go to the local feed store you dont have any cariety to choose from
The spurious stories people tell themselves to justify their own narrative - “they’re really comfortable in there. None of them ever died or anything”. There’s a reason ducklings never voluntarily go inside a cardboard box for a couple days. Because it’s not. Imagine if someone stuck you inside a box for a couple days and shipped you cross country. You’ll probably survive too, but that doesn’t mean you’re happy about it or comfortable.
Yeah they don’t look good. I’ve ordered through the mail but not usps, special shipping, big box with heat lamp, food, and waterx
JOEY TAYLOR thanks for the message. I’m trying my best to not criticize those who order ducklings by mail. You seem like your intentions are good as probably most who order them are. It’s just a truth we all ought to consider. Just like the people who fish for sport who throw the fish back in the water and say they are fine, they live. But yeah they live with a hole in their nose the rest of their life. Do they think about that ever if someone pricked a hole in their nose? I don’t want to be the bad guy, but it’s hard to say the truth without offending people, unless it makes them laugh or supports their own narrative.
Ship it from INDIA MART.COM
Theyre hungry! 😓
You can mail day old poultry if it will arrive within 72 hours.
Adult birds can also be mailed but must be at least 6 oz and not over 25lbs.
At 155 lbs I am unmailable.
Quack quack quack
@Shokara2
We are not in agreement then. To me, the idea of killing and eating something for no other reason than pleasure indicates that we don't respect the animal. We do not need to kill or eat other animals - we simply do it because it tastes good - hence killing 'em for pleasure and not respecting them as beings with their own value and worth independent of what we label them with.
I don't know but maybe somebody else reading your note has an idea?
