I finally have my much anticipated chicks. I was going to wait until the local feedstore or TSC had chicks available, but after reading a post by Vicki 2x2 about a store nearby having chicks, my plans changed. Thanks Vicki!
I sent the guys off to work and told them I had other things to do (it's nice being the boss) then I beat feet over to Family Farm and Home and decided on what I wanted that was available.
I knew I wanted ISA Browns so I bought 4, I knew I wanted the Americauna to get the various colored eggs, so I bought 3 and I also bought 3 Buff Orpingtons. I really wanted to get some RIR and some Barred Rocks, but there were none, so this is what I will be starting with.
And a close up of them.
Thanks again Vicki for the timely post!
