    Received Too Many Baby Chicks in my "Small Order"

    The tiny chicken house I made could only hold four hens, at most. Plus, several local citizens went to a lot of work last year to get the ordinance changed. Before that, it wasn't legal to have any chickens in town, (but anyone who wanted chickens just went ahead and got some anyway). Ignoring...

    Dang - I won't be able to drive down to Baker City. Sorry. But I'm sure you'll find some chicks when you get home (and you won't have to mess with the babies on your trip). The fellow at the local feed store is going to ask around. He said he had a customer last week who wanted just a few...

    Received Too Many Baby Chicks in my "Small Order"

    Just as an update, I spoke with the hatchery this afternoon and they said they almost always throw in extra birds on small orders.

I live in eastern Oregon. The fair starts tomorrow, and I'm hoping one of the kids will take the little guys...

    Received Too Many Baby Chicks in my "Small Order"

    I ordered three baby Light Brahma chicks from Nature's Hatchery, and paid for their special small order box. I actually received 10 chicks, and there wasn't anything "special" about the box that I could see. Three of the chicks look like photos I've seen of Light Brahmas, and I think there are...
