    Anyone impatiently waiting for your baby chicks to arrive?!?!

    Look into Townline Poultry Farm, Inc, in Michigan, looks like 2.5 hours to Chicago. I had 15 (ended up with 17) shipped from there to Idaho. I got 6 layers, BOs, SLW, Ameraucanas, and a Jersey Giant, and I ordered 9 cornish X and they shipped 11. All were alive and well... and all are still...

    Anyone impatiently waiting for your baby chicks to arrive?!?!

    I'm considering these 9 meats to be a trial run, to see if I want to get into a little bigger operation to feed extended fam and friends. I'm sure I won't have any problem getting rid of eggs if I'm overrun with them!! I LOVE eggs, and hate buying them from the store. Egg salad, devilled...

    Anyone impatiently waiting for your baby chicks to arrive?!?!

    How fun!! I'm looking forward to continuing this excellent experiment (like you are) will into the future. These CXs I'm going to butcher in May. My job requires me to be away from home a few days a week, and I think 6 layers will be manageable. I am really looking forward to cooking up the...

    Anyone impatiently waiting for your baby chicks to arrive?!?!

    Yup! First chicks!! 2 Ameraucanas, 2 BOs, 1 Jersey Giant, 1 SL Wyandotte, and 9 Cornish X to meet the 15 chick minimum. I'm a first-time chickie Mama (hence my over-nervous tendencies!). My handy, crafty, retired dad helped me build brooders; my very patient BF has been fairly understanding and...

    Oh, I'm ready!! Brooder, EcoGlo, water, food.... everything is ready. I plan to be at the post office at 6:30am the day they arrive so I can take them right home when I get the call. Thank you for the calming words!! I'm so anxious for the little chickies!!

    Anyone impatiently waiting for your baby chicks to arrive?!?!

    Have you had chicks shipped to Oregon before? I'm so nervous about mine coming! Mine are coming from Townline in Michigan to Idaho... I'm curious, if they ship on Tuesday, do they arrive at 6:30am Wednesday or Thursday?? And with March temps, they should (mostly) be ok, right?!

    How do you like the EcoGlo? Did you use it inside? I'm planning to use it in the garage and I'm beginning to get nervous it's not going to be enough...?!

    Anyone impatiently waiting for your baby chicks to arrive?!?!

    I went and talked to the Post Office yesterday... haven't done this before so I wanted to make sure they'd call (like you all say they do). When I said I have chicks coming in a couple weeks, the post-mistress was SO excited!! She said they'd call at 6:30 am! So, I will be that one that will be...

    Thanks for the pictures!!! On one hand, it makes my impatience that much worse, but on the other, it subsides it just a little :)

    My FIRST batch of chicks ship on the 17th.... Eeeee!!! I'm sooo very excited but extremely nervous at the same time! I've read more about chicks in the past 3 months than I thought possible. I've got my brooder boxes made, EcoGlow is on the way, going to get bedding/feed today.... I'm going...
