The post office called at 6:40am this morning, and I went to their back door and picked up my rainbow layer assortment from MPC!
I ended up with 26! They were chirping up a storm on the ride home, but when I opened their box and placed them under the heat lamp to warm up, they promptly went to sleep (hence, snoozing chicks in my photos!
). I'll take some more pics tomorrow, but I basically received 14 light colored, 2 Gray/black/cream patterned, and 10 chipmunk patterned chicks.
Of the light, ten are yellow, two are peach colored, and 2 are yellow with a smokey gray cast. I think among the chipmunk chicks, I have 1 Speckled Sussex (I hope! Ihope!
), 'cause she's more red-tinted than the others and has a white chest. I guess the others are brown Leghorns. I haven't figured out who has puffy cheeks, yet.
They are extremely active and eating and drinking well.
