So I see my Amazon Prime ship dates hit a week now instead of 1-2 days and I have to wonder is it even possible to get next day shipping actually arrive on time for livestock in this environment? Any recent experience within the last week?

I have a overnight shipment for tomorrow delivery. I would say the Amazon delivery date extension is due to the increase in orders because people do not want to go out or their grocery stores are out of stock on items

We've been shipping without issue. Amazon is delayed because their "last mile" deliveries are essentially slowing the process down. While fedex is being held to their shipping deadlines Amazon needs to find people willing to pick up from the warehouse and deliver to your home(as well as people to package the stuff). Locally, they're paying $2 over the $15 base pay to anyone willing to work and some other incentives. Furthermore, lots of things are also sold out.
I had an amazon order that said it would be delayed until tomorrow but actually arrived today. That being said, the warehouse is only 20 min away from our store
 
This isn't Amazon specific but distribution centers are being clogged because of undeliverable packages. Fedex and UPS are both providing lists of zip codes that they won't even ship to now.
 
I'm happy to update that I was misinformed by my commercial rep. IF distribution centers become clogged they will provide a list of areas they will cease shipping to. This doesn't mean that all is good but its much better than we were told. For now, most shipping is good from my company.
