Ducklings are shipped via Priority Mail Express 1-day thru USPS and are boxed in groups of at least 4 babies to make sure they stay warm during their trip. They are also provided a source of food to help keep them hydrated while in route.
Express shipments can take up to 2 days to arrive at your local USPS, therefore, it is asked that you provide your phone number so postal service can contact you once your shipment has arrived. I will provide you with a tracking number so you'll be able to track your babies throughout their journey. It is imperative you track your shipment and are available to pick them up from your local USPS once contacted.
If you need birds shipped, prices are calculated through the USPS calculator based on weight of the bird and it's destination. Ducklings that are 2 weeks old weigh roughly 11.4oz. (give or take away a few ounces). The box I use to ship 2-3 week olds in measures 15"x 10"x 7" tall. The price of this box is $8 thru Horizon. To give you a rough estimate on cost to ship 2-3 week old ducklings, please click here USPS Price Calculator or click the button at the top of the 'Available Birds' page and enter your zipcode.
