We know ordering waterfowl online can be complicated. Here are a few tips to help improve your experience!
|
|
|
TIP #1: Allow substitutions to give your order flexibility.
|
|
When checking out on the website, you'll see an option to allow substitutions for a similar breed or for another breed in your order. Choosing this option gives us more flexibility to fill your order if hatch rates don't go exactly as planned on your chosen ship week. It's the best way to make sure you still receive happy, healthy birds right on schedule!
If you prefer to wait for a specific breed and opt out of substitutions, that is no problem! We'll simply contact you to reschedule your order if any issues arisse on your ship day.
|
|
|
|
TIP #2: Check back for updated availability.
|
|
|
We are starting the year with a conservative estimate of what we project will be available each ship week, but availability will change throughout the season. If a breed you want is sold out, check back later because it may open up! You can log in anytime to view your order and make changes.
|
|
|
|
TIP #3: Don't forget the extras, they make all the difference!
|
|
|
We strongly recommend that every customer adds our VitaMetz Waterfowl Boost to their order. This blend of vitamins, electrolytes, trace minerals, and beneficial bacteria specially formulated for ducks and other waterfowl.
Another popular option is Duck Life Insurance. For just $8.45 per duck, you'll have peace of mind knowing your birds are covered for one full year once you receive them. If you lose a bird for any reason, no questions asked, we will send you a replacement bird of the same breed at zero cost to you and free shipping within that calendar year.

VitaMetz Waterfowl Boost Customer Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Whenever I felt like my ducks needed a pick me up, I was found mixing this in their water. They would always perk right up and looked so much better within 24 hours. I highly recommend. I would not have ducks without having some of this on hand ALWAYS. I have three bags in their first aid kit currently."

|
TIP #4: Update your order instead of cancelling.
If your plans change, you can update your order or leave a credit on your account. This keeps your options open for birds or future orders and helps everything run smoothly on our end. You can log in anytime to make changes, swap breeds, or adjust your ship week.
