Just got my 1st flock ever "Scream!" of joy
My 1st flock consists of 12 Black Langshans & 12 Buff Brahmas. I invite you all to come share my joy.
They where hatched & shipped on the 27 of Jun to My Moms farm address in Sparta Mo, & where supposed to be picked up @ the Sparta Mo Post Office; But apparently there was a mix up on UPS's part,
because they ended up at the Springfield Mo Post Office & UPS had them marked not to be delivered to Sparta till the 29th.
Well when Me & my Mom found this out we called the Springfield Post Office & explained that the chicks "would not shrive that long with out food & water & asked if they was any way we could get them today?"
UPS apologized & said that they would ship them rush delivery to our closest Post Office; which was even better then the Organelle set up of them going to Sparta; because the Ozark Mo Post Office is actually closer,
so we had them sent to Ozark & got to pick them up an hour & a half later with every on Alive & Well.
I ordered all pullets but my have 1 or 2 roos in each."aaa.. oh well"
I bought them from Ideal poultry for ruffly $81.00 with shipping; & Only 1 out of the 24 chicks is looking not so good. I think she's under developed. but I know what's wrong with her is Not caching & she is so sweet.
Just Thought I'd give you all an up date on My 1st Flock I've lost 2 of my Black Langshans the one that was not doing so good & one from accidental puling of the umbilical cord when they where Close to a Week old. So I now have 10 Black Langshans & 12 Buff Brahmas.They are now 4 Week/1 Month Old & really starting to feather out & her they all are together again The brown in the pic is a temporary thing that I used to coral them for the photo & is not part of there usual set up. & as you can see they have moved from tier indoor hose to an outdoor brooder hut.
