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

We'll be picking the chicks up in about 2 hours! The sort facility north of us called and they have our chicks. One of the workers kindly offered to bring them down with her when she gets off work today and we'll be meeting her at a post office halfway between us and the sort facility.

Post pictures when you get your chicks home!

Wow, that never happens. How nice of her.

It was wonderfully thoughtful of her. That sort facility does do a "courtesy call" to everyone in the outlying areas who order chicks to let them know they can come pick them up if they want to.

I will soon! Just finished settling them in the brooder and need to get myself some dinner first.

Portland feels like it's in another state sometimes, lol!

My first herd from Meyer were 9 BO (one rooster). They went to freezer camp last fall at 31 months old.

FREEZER CAMP GIVES ME THE CHILLS.

Thanks pretty awesome of them, I have seen were many have tried to pick up their packages early or contact other facilities with no luck. I get my first live chicks in May, kinda of nervous of how it will go with the post office. The people up there are very nice, just not sure what they think of live chicks.

Got chicks!

We brought our babies home tonight. We wound up with 8 Buff Orp girls 2 boys and 4 Welsummer girls.

I'll post a pic later.

Thanks to Lisa at LandM Game Birds in Brashear MO for the great communication, conversation and most of all, selling me these adorable chicks!
