Brooder ready... waiting on phone call from post office.... nothing - so assuming they will come tomorrow! Testing the heat lamp to make sure I don't cook or freeze the little girls...

Got the call from hatchery today, they are out of Welsummers, so we are getting a Golden Laced Wyandotte instead... so the girls will be a Buff Orpington, Buff Brahma Bantam, Easter Egger, a Barred Plymouth Rock, and the Golden Laced Wyandotte...

Our chicks hatch tomorrow! They should arrive Tue or Wed! For sure by Thurs! Can't wait... my son (a junior in high school) wants to skip school the first day we get them...
I have the brooder ready-almost... the big girl chicken coop designed... but no names yet... any suggestions?
