Travel with chicks??

[1newchickontheblock]

Ok, here's a question- just received my day old babies (yay!) and was planning to travel to PA for long weekend July 4th. I was going to have M-i-L watch them at her house, but would it be do-able to bring them along instead, in their brooder? (So they'd be sure to get the attention they deserve)?? They'd be a week old by then...there are 4 little ones...thoughts??
ETA- (4 hour trip)

I would leave them. The fewer changes, the better.

I agree, leave them at home. That kind of stress is not good for such young chicks.
Best,

Thanks- I will leave them at home (under care of hubby- fingers crossed!)
