Yea, I think it was USPS' fault. The tractor supply near me didn't get their chicks until really late in the week either. Hoping the next one goes good :) I got the Brahma added and we'll go from there.
I just put 2:2 together and realized a barred rock is in that "rock" family. That took me a while lol.
That would make my order at 12, and I think that would be good to avoid the losses that could occur. This is a replacement order for my March 29th order, where 10/12 of my chicks were DOA.
I've ordered some chicks from Meyer, and I added a silver penciled rock pullet to my order coming on May 3. I checked again, and the dark Brahma is now available for that week as well. Both look similar, very pretty penciled pattern, and now I'm stuck between the dark Brahma and the silver...
