Okay so I took a chance on a new up and coming hatchery that one other person on here had told me they had used. Everything seems fine with the health of the chicks. I really have no complaints. He posted an add on Craigslist for Panama City, Florida... that read.

So being it was SO SO SO cheap I called and set it up to pick them up today. He was SUPER NICE!.
I got home and built a temp brooder, cause I think they are way to young for my big brooder. Plus I wanted to watch chick TV for awhile and I knew my wife would want to as well. I love it when I have to buy almost NOTHING. The 23 Chicks I got, for $25, he sexed what he could for only a $0.25 more. I only wanted 20 , he threw the other 3 in for free.
Anyhow, I took a bunch of pictures when I got home. Some came out alright, some others could be better. The mixture I got, has a few Barred Rocks, Jersey Giants, EE's, Dominecker, Buff Orpingtons, And Some kinda Bantams, with Feathers on their feet. Here ya go.
