Brand new and got my first five chicks today!

[CaraBY]

Hi everyone!

I'm a complete noob, but I'm now the owner of 5 Cochin (full size, not bantam) chicks. We bought seven eggs but felt too overwhelmed to hatch them ourselves, so we paid a nice lady with a lot more experience to incubate them. Fast forward a bit and she called us today to tell us that five had hatched and to come get 'em. I'm sure I'll be plastering y'all with questions in the days to come. We live near Dallas, TX.
