They are here, got them this morning! Nine Whiting True Blues along with some chicks for family plus a couple layers. The free exotic is a white Polish. All chicks were very active and hungry!
I just got the shipping notification! Ive been so worried they'd be stuck at the post office and somehow I wouldnt know, so I signed up for the USPS tracking text alerts so Im aware of all activity. Also the chicks I planned to raise them with all hatched today as well, all Sapphires, CL/EE, &...
So..did everyone get a shipping notification before they came? Just wondering because our chicks are to be shipped week of April 18th, and we've heard nothing so far. I was half expecting them to come today..
I just looked now its back to all males again, changed from a few days ago. I had been thinking of adding to my order but changed my mind. I have enough babies to raise right now:) Actually I was just counting I only have 16 adult hens, but the babies are countless right now lol
Yep, think thats the only hatchery that carries them. Anyone looking should check periodically as last time I looked there were 50 some females available next month, so maybe they have cancellations now & then.
Wow look how long those wing feathers are getting! I don't think I've ever seen any of my chicks get such long wing feathers in relation to their bodies. I just have homegrowns now, my Whiting Blues come in April
Looks like the yellow and black is a girl then, and the grey\blue is the boy. He looks a lil' puffy faced too, very cute! Love his super dark legs too. Interesting they have different color legs, I think I remember reading that now.
Congrats on your new chicks! Thank you for posting pics of the Whiting True Blues. Any close up pics of the bluish one? I also remember reading something about them being feather sexable on the other thread.
