Johnston County, NC

Shipping & pickup

Options are determined listing by listing, with weather, distance, documentation, and welfare considered first.

Local pickup Pickup is available in Johnston County, North Carolina by appointment. Exact directions and timing are shared after payment confirmation. Buyers should bring an appropriate secure carrier for live birds and inspect the purchase before leaving.

Hatching egg shipping Standard hatching-egg orders use one USPS Priority Mail Medium Flat Rate shipping charge per checkout unless the listing states otherwise. Each egg is individually cushioned and packed to withstand normal postal handling. Shipping may be postponed when anticipated temperatures are likely to affect the eggs.

USPS delivery timeframes are estimates and do not guarantee a particular arrival day. Transit handling and temperature are outside Humble Seramas’ control, so shipment does not include a hatch-rate guarantee.

Day-old chick shipping Nationwide chick orders are sold by color at the price shown per paid chick. Standard-weather orders may use a 6+2 bonus pack or an 8+2 bonus pack. During cold-weather shipping, the 8+2 pack is required and one $5 UniHeat charge is added per shipment. Hydrogel is included with every shipped chick order.

Day-old chicks ship by USPS Priority Mail Express in a USPS-approved 12 × 9 × 6-inch, 25-count chick box. Up to 25 day-old chicks may travel in one box. Chicks are shipped only when they meet current postal age, packaging, timing, destination, weather, and welfare requirements. Shipment may be postponed or cancelled when safe delivery within the required timeframe is not reasonably available.

Live-bird shipping Live birds ship by USPS Priority Mail Express in a 17.7 × 7.8 × 11.8-inch ventilated poultry shipping box. One box holds up to three adult birds (one trio, or a pair and one single bird) or up to five young birds. Additional birds require additional boxes. Live-bird shipping is offered only when explicitly enabled on a listing and when age, destination, weather, carrier rules, health documentation, and welfare permit safe travel.

Delays and damage If an order cannot ship within the promised period, Humble Seramas will offer a revised date or cancellation of the unshipped order for a refund as required by law. Photograph visible damage promptly, including the outer box, label, packing, and contents, and contact sunsaberltd@gmail.com.
