    Frizzle Polish, Silkie, or Cochin

    Hello, I received these chicks from a Kindergarten teacher who hatched them in her class. They were given to her by her neighbor's friend who is a breeder.

    Getting Chicks...Got Butterflies!

    Thank you DDawn and Hello Camelot Farms. I haven't built anything yet. I thought I'd have a few weeks to brood them inside. I haven't ordered them yet either so I have some time. Most of the feed stores get their chickens in September so that's when I was going to have mine delivered. Thank you...
