I received 54 healthy chicks the day after shipping and i live in Rhode Island now they are 4 weeks old and all are still alive Cackle is great.

we got SO many chicks! also 3 ducks, and 3 turkeys. I still don't know what some of them are... but some of the ones I DO know:
buff laced Polish
Turken
Australorp
Cinnamon Queen
Gold laced Wyandotte
french black copper marans
speckled sussex
welsummer
leghorns (brown and white I think)
light brahma
columbian either rock or wyandotte
barred rock
easter eggersI *think* a lavender orpington
and we got a little white Sultan that I loved but she passed:-{
I think there's a silver phoenix in there too, and a couple other breeds I haven't identified yet

The boxes I'm seeing others get this week, have a similar variety from what I can tell..different turkeys and duck breeds though. we got broad breasted white turkeys, and 2 pekin ducks and I *think* a khaki campbell.
