Hey I just got home from a long 2 hour drive to Meyer hatchery! I brought home 5 brand spanking new Golden buffs, fresh out of the incubator! They were hatched at 3:00 am this morning. Not even 24 hours old! So tiny so cute! And the box they sent them home in too cute! They have already been pecking at food, not water yet. Had in incident with my Maltese. I thought he had killed one. But she seems fine now. I sat the box in the brooder and went in the other room I heard loud peeping and ran back 4 were huddled together in a corner and one was flopping around like it couldn't stand up! No blood, wasn't wet so I know he didn't have it in his mouth. I held her for a while and when I put her back in the box she could stand up. I think my dog tried to get in the box with them. He loves babies, human or animal. Anyway he got a good scolding and he was just as worried about the baby as I was. Now he is laying beside them and if I would let him in the brooder he would probably get in there with them! Not happening! I couldn't wait for them to ship so I went and picked mine up. I will post a pic later. Right now I am to tired to move! I have car lag!
