They were all supposed to go out to the coop this week, but with the rain here in NYC I didn't get the coop shingled. Hopefully by the end of the week, I'll get it finished and stained.

Loved the original story, and thanks for the 'growing-up" photos.

Any ideas on gender for the five? The three full-sized ones are 8 weeks old, and the Silkies are 6.

The three full sized ones came from MPC, so I'm betting they're girls.

The silkies were picked out at the hatchery. So I've got a 50/50 chance.

I know if I put a hold at the PO on an express pick up the PO website will change the address to the main hub post office, that is probably what happened to you. The main hub for express pick up is often not your local PO.

sorry it was such a hassle.

I am only 20 minutes from you so if you are ever wanting to pick up chicks locally...

enjoy the little fuzz butts

they are very cute!
