Congrats! You are going to have so much fun learning all their personalities and talking to them.
One of the best compliments from one of my daughters: "Moma, you smell good...like dirt." |

Congradulations I love getting new chicks. It's like Christmas when I go to the post office and pick up my box of chicks. God Bless Wendy |

Am curious if they are sexed. Chicks are so addictive. The feed store knows I would buy each chick they have if I could house them all. By the way I am so in love with Jersey Giants and the dark chocolate coloured eggs they lay, since I blow the eggs in order to make tree ornaments. And my French hens, get to come inside my cottage. ~Beth~
