Has anyone flown with day old chicks?

Our take

Are you considering flying with day-old chicks? You’re not alone! A fellow chicken enthusiast, RaqMountainMama, is facing the same feathered dilemma. With 25 specially bred dual-purpose chicks in tow, they want to avoid a long drive and instead take a quick 1.5-hour flight. However, they’ve discovered that most airlines typically only accept pets like vaccinated dogs and cats over eight weeks old. This has left them wondering if anyone in the community has experience flying with chicks and can share some insights. If you’ve managed to transport your feathered friends via air or have tips on navigating airline policies for poultry, your wisdom could make all the difference for RaqMountainMama. Let’s flock together and brainstorm some cluck-tastic solutions!

Does anyone have experience flying with chicks? LSS, I'll be traveling with 25 day old chicks. I'd rather fly 1.5 hours than drive all day. A couple of quick searches say that two airlines will accept 8 week+ vaccinated dogs/cats only. But maybe someone knows something that I don't. :D (These are specially bred dual-purpose birds from a breeder well known for amazing quality birds. The breeder does not ship. It was my lucky day when the fam decided to vacation in this area. Literally 25 birds, 1 stone. I'll drive if I have to, but I'd rather not.)
