First time chick Mama!

[Chicksocute]

Hi, my friend has had chickens for a couple of months now and loves hatching eggs, she introduced me to BYC. My 8 year old daughter fell in love with one of her chicks and begged me to have some for Easter. As we are in lockdown here in the UK I thought it would be educational for her (and me), as well as giving us something to do. We have 2 Polish Bantam chicks which are 2 days old and are due to pick up another 2 of a different breed shortly. They are just getting settled into their new home and can be quite chirpy. We can't stop interacting with them. Found myself getting up at 6 this morning just to check on them. Looking forward to seeking advice with your many members.
