Did you get chick feed?

Yes. Feeder and waterer are being bleached.

All 5 together. I guess with them hatching a week before the others it should be easier to tell them apart from the shipped egg chicks. I think the yellowish ones should be Silver feathered, the stripey one is either a Golden Pearl or Wild/Normal, and the last two are Red Breasted.

I must see your hand in there for size reference. MUST.

YOU MISSED THEM HATCHING OUT!?!? How dare you!

They are precious! Congrats!
I am extremely excited that you didn't up the humidity/add water.
I bet they would have died if you did!

Can you put a quarter on the floor next to one the next time you take a picture.
I'm trying to grasp just how little they are.

I couldn't find a quarter but I found a penny. Wondering if I should take a picture of them next to the few-days-old Brahma chick.

I need to get a pic of my new chick. I won't be keeping this one, it is not one of the new genetics pairings.

Not yet. Just put food and water in there.
