Chick update!

So I went back to TSC early today. They had sold all the Lavender Orpingtons. ☹️

So I went home and called all the other TSCs within a 90 minute drive. Found one about an hour away that said they still had them. So hopped in the car and started driving while I called my TSC to see if the still had at least 2-3 Wyandottes and to ask if they would let me get less than the usual minimum of 4, since I would be getting some LOs at the other store. They said that was fine and they would put 4 aside for me to choose from.

Called the store that said they had the LOs to let them know I was on my way and to see if they would also let me get just 2-3 and if they would hold them for me. Got connected to a different person who told me she sold all the LOs yesterday. I was so upset, especially since the first person I talked to said they still had a lot of them. Tried a few other sources but no luck. There is still a chance one of the TSCs will get some when they get their last shipment this week, but no guarantees.

I decided to go ahead and get the Wyandottes. Glad I had convinced them to hold a few as someone was there buying all the others when I arrived. They are supposed to be Blue Laced Gold Wyandottes. But they don’t all look the same. There is a chance some could be Blue Laced Red, but I really hope they are all Blue Laced Gold.

Pictures!

Oh no he's terrified of them as they run together full speed to any person and he thought they wanted to eat him so he cried. I then picked him up and to his terrified surprise I then picked up Susan. Ahhh....he will never trust me again 😂
 
Had some old family friends over for the weekend. The little girls are practically my little sisters. Just very young little sisters! The one enjoyed holding Bolt and Sapphire, but the other was too shy at first. She did end up holding a chick, but I didn’t take a picture.

That's a fabulous day out, they are very smart, and want to be part of the flock 🤗

How old are they now? Do you have a timeline for their being fully integrated and staying out in the coop?

They sure are growing aren't they!

Yeah! They are very smart. Willow pecked it and they all learned immediately to peck the nipple to get water.
I think that they are two weeks. I got them last Saturday and I think that they were a week old. I don’t have a timeline but I know that last week on Sunday night I left the brooder door open. They just wander around in the big coop now. At first they stayed in their pen.
