Decent chicks, terrible service I was really looking forward to adding fayoumis to my flock after dealing with Marek’s this past year. I ordered 5 (straight run), and received 2. I wasn’t given any notice to this change. When I called, the phone line was consistently busy literally all day. I called a dozen times. Finally got through and the lady I spoke with was nice, but informed me that they didn’t hatch enough fayoumis to fill my order. She said they weren’t doing reshipment either, only refunds. I was pretty upset, these were birds I really needed due to their Marek’s resistance. She said they were out of stock until July… well why couldn’t they fill my order on the next hatch out, since I likely placed mine ahead of others? I had ordered a month prior, well before the coronavirus panic buying. I asked her to please put me on a list to send chicks if they hatched any extras. She said she would note that I would prefer to receive the birds over the refund. The very next day… I get an email saying I was refunded. So, so so unbelievably disappointed and angry by all of this. Now, the chicks are fine. I definitely have one cockerel and one pullet and could tell by day 5. Their behavior is hilariously feral. I just wish I had actually received what I ordered, or that more care was taken to inform me and offer other options. I’m upset that people who ordered way after me might be getting their orders while I remain with less than half of the expected fayoumis.
