I had a hatch date the same as slips and I had a 3/10/14 for 2 surprises total. Only death we had was a splayed leg bantam. We tried to help the little one but ask quick as he came, he went. :(
First surprise we got more large sized chickens and a few bantams. Our Second surprise we got more bantams. Kind of bummed out we didn't get any turkeys, but that just means another order later in the year. :) Also gives us time to finish the turkey setup :)

We requested no ducks. We didn't get any turkeys :( But we have our second surprise shipping out on Monday !! :)

:( So far we have only lost 1 and it was due to splayed leg. I had him patched up and walking fine, but he just stood around a lot and had no interest in food or water. I tried giving it water/mush feed by a tiny syringe considering he was a tiny bantam. He passed last night. :( Fly high little...

Yep they are. I have the smaller breeds in the setup area we had for turkeys etc. So they don't get trampled by the big chicks. We have quite a few silkies with all the same coloring. There is some like yours that have the 5 toes but clean legs.
