I called the post office this morning and the chicks were not in. They were shipped from Cackle yesterday and I was told they would be here tomorrow...well at 2pm got a call from the post office and the chicks JUST GOT IN! and the PO was nice enough to make a special delivery.

So they are here and arrived active and chirping. I think one of the BO may have been injured in transit as it seems weaker and is favoring one side.

They have all drank the sugar water and eaten and now are taking a nap.

this is what they looked like when they arrived

the BO in the lower right hand corner is the wobbly one and I just realized its eye was stuck shut...i washed it with warm water so hopefully that will help its balance.

I did not order these chicks....they were the 2 extra I got. Any idea what they are?

thanks for checking them out! i really hope they are ok. they seem happy in the brooder, are eating and pooping quite a bit and moving around...they do not cluster all in one area so hope that means they are not too cold. temp says it is 90 in the center of the heat circle. I'll try to get more pics in the next day or so.
