Ok. Here is my honest experience. Like everyone else I was thinking I would never see this meat shipment. I had ordered elk, ostrich, pheasant, quail, and squab on 11/9. I did contact the owner Anshu every few weeks on the progress of my order. He was super nice. Come to find out that he was out of one of my items. This was holding up my order. He did offer to swap out for something else. I agreed. Next thing I know my order shipped out the next week. I just received it tonight. Everything was frozen and in great shape! My advice is if you are ordering for an event or need the meat on a certain day you might want to call and make sure he has it in stock. I think the hold ups are that he is out of stock on some items. Yes, it would be nice if he mentioned that on his website so you didn't order it. But I think he is overwhelmed with tons of orders. Again my best advice is to probably call him and see what he does have in stock before placing your order. He is very responsive every time I have called him. He also did not charge my card until it was shipped out. I would definitely order from him again!
