[TexasGirl97]

Yall... we went in to TSC yesterday to just start buying supplies we needed to get baby chickens... well, we went to see what chickens they had and they had a huge selection of different breeds and had the chicks that we wanted so we got them while we were there lol... can you guess what breeds we got? We got 12 total, one is just camera shy lol

I think olive Eggers and cuckoo maran chicks must look VERY similar because last spring I was sold a olive Eggers that looked identical to yours but turned out to be a cuckoo maran! It was a backyard breeder though not a hatchery.

Aww the fluffy faces! Is that their brooder or just a temporary holding spot? If it’s their brooder, looks like they are getting too big for it!

Just a temporary spot! We took them out of the brooder so that we could clean it out and one of the chicks had pasty butt, so cleaned her up as well
