Dixie Chicks

I just realized I ordered 41 chicks, plus they throw in that "exotic" chick for free plus I figure on a couple extras in case of death. I'm going to have 45+ chicks the first of May. :/


How fun! lol
Don't worry, I have more than that right now in the freezing fricken' cold!! :D
 
This is the first year mine have taken a break in winter. Some of my gals are approaching 3 years old, some 2, and one just started laying. I really want to hatch the blue orp hens eggs so I can see what I get in a pure bred chick, but the one egg I was sure was hers wasn't fertile. I may clip her feathers around her vent in spring. She's got a cushy tushie.
