    got my red bros today

    they came all safe and sound. i have several that looked a little listless but i'm hoping the vitamin water will perk them up. he put the 100 in two boxes of 50 batches each. the bottom batch was a lot happier than the top batch. gave them some feed and they were busy eating it up when i left.
