February Chicks

[Guigoo]

I am so sad to hear that!
I ordered my chickens on strombergschickens and their work is fantastic! I ordered 25, got 27. They shipped it in 48hours and they were all alive! I had some trouble with one (as said in my other post) but I saved her and now she is doing super great running with the others!
I read so much about chicks dying and I'm really happy that my 27 chicks made it so far! They are a week old now! I still don't know the breeds, I'm new to raising chickens and I ordered a pack of brown egg layers. If anyone know?


My little Krishna is the one on the right with a dot on her head!


There are my babies!!!!

[rsleghornchicki]

the first batch came from ideal poultry! and all the chicks have such big personalities! the outdoor brooder is too cold for them so they get to sleep in the house! darn! my little sis named the polish pinocchio! lol idk why! he is a black crested boy! when u rubb his puff he falls asleep!
