Well today is the day i will be heading to cackle to pick up my order

 

[mamato3]

that was a long trip lol. We got 3 orders 2 surprises from cackle then 11 guineas and 2 bourbon red turkeys from Estes. I will try for pics later my phone was taking blurry pics. In total from the surprise it looks like 75 chicks 4 geese 4 turkeys. But they started to mingle and blur together after 30 so i might be of lol. From what i can id ive got houdans, cohins slw, posible rir or some other red sexlink, americanas, some mixed top hats and some others that will be a guessing game for my family as they grow. The turkeys are i think BBW

no heritage but i bought 2 Bourbans at estes to make up for it. And 4 yellow big billed things that i think are the white geese they sell.
