YES! That's what I wanted! lol! With my goosies, I was down there at 5:00 am, ready to pick them up! That's what was supposed to happen!
At least they're all OK--I still think they were about a day old when they arrived. They're just now starting to sprout wing feathers...
So, we've decided on names--the EE is Tulla; the CM is Felicity, and the BO is still Minerva.
Oh--and yes, the CM chick does look just like a barred Rock! When they grow up, they will be roughly the same color too.

I believe the difference between the BR and the CM is that they have different colored legs and the CM lay those beautiful dark, chocolate colored eggs!
I can't wait to have those eggs from this girl!
I'm still waiting on Grandma to see which one will be Atilla the Hen and which will be Henrietta, personally I think the latter will be the RIR.
I'm so happy to have babies!
This is batch number three of this year!!
