We just got our first ones a couple weeks ago and I'm still just as excited as when they first arrived. Take lots of pictures - as you probably know they grow like weeds. Mine look nothing like when they arrived, except for the silkies who are a little slower to develop.

Thank! & thanks for your advice on the pics they have grown so much it's seem like every day since I got them they have done something worth getting on camera & now I have tons of chicken pics; they are used to a camera so they let me take pic of them bey them selves & up close & personal, so now I can document them individually.

& Congratulations On your 1st flock too! what breeds & colors are they & how many? & Sorry about the sickies Hope there wasn't that many of them& hope they get throw it OK!
