To ensure the yard display of your choice we ask for notice a week in advance. However, we can provide same day or next day service depending on availability.

Does someone have to be home during delivery or pick up?
No one has to be home during delivery or pick up of our display. That’s the beauty of our business…we work our magic and the honoree gets to enjoy their special day!

When do you deliver/pick up?
We deliver 7 days a week.  Our delivery time is typically between 9pm and before the sun rises. We pick up anytime after the sun sets depending on the installers schedule. 

YARD DISPLAY RENTALS: We deliver the flock the night before and pick up the following evening around sunset, or the next day, depending on the installer’s schedule.

STORK  RENTALS: We can deliver the rental the night before mother and baby arrive from the hospital for a surprise and pick up on the 5th day near sunset, or the next afternoon, depending on the installer’s schedule.

What if I want to move the critters?
Please do not attempt to move the sign or “critters.”

Can I mow and water my lawn? Please do not mow while crittiers are in the yard.

What if there is damange to the yard or sprinklers?  We are not responsible if there is damange due to setting up the display.  The signs have to be stuck deep in the yard in order to stay up. We can not determine where sprinkler lines and such are, esp at night in the dark.

YARD DISPLAY RENTALS: Watering is fine, please do not try to mow around the display, or take it down for mowing. If you wish to have the display removed before the rental time is up, please call and we will be happy to come and remove it for you.

STORK RENTALS: If you must trim your yard during your rental period, please be careful around the display. If at all possible, please let the trimming around the display go until it has been removed. We do understand that this is not always feasible but we do sincerely appreciate you taking precautions to protect our signs and “critters.” Watering is fine, our “critters” and signs are sealed to protect them from water damage.

What if the critters become damaged?
Our “critters” and signs have been successfully tested in wind and rain and have proven very durable. If however, you notice any damage as a result of severe weather, please notify us immediately.
Our signs are not designed to withstand climbing by children. Please, for your child(ren)’s safety, do not allow them to play on or near the sign or “critters.”

If any vandalism or theft occurs, please contact us immediately. We reserve the right to refuse service to any location if there is a concern of damage or theft of our property.
