GRRR Where's me babies

Yay! Glad they finally made it! Loosing 3 isn't too bad, it could've been a lot worse, and Meyer will like give you a refund or credit towards a future purchase for the DOAs.

Enjoy your fuzzy butts!

Now the fun begins trying to figure out who is who and what breed. I seem to have gotten at of chipmunks and buffs of assorted types and a splotchy faced one

The chipmunk ones are the easter eggers.

thanks for the Easter Egger info

Actually other varieties besides Easter Eggers can be chipmunk looking as young chicks. And Easter Eggers don't always have to be chipmunk.

This is Agatha as a chick, yellow with charcoal smudges on her head and back -


And this is Agatha all grown up.


This little gray fella was Scout as a chick -


And this is that little gray dude as an adult Easter Egger.

Glad your chicks (most of them) made it safely! It can be a real nail-biter, can't it?

Beautiful they are

Woohooo!

So glad that everything worked out and your chicks arrived safely (for the most part). Sounds like Meyers really knows there stuff. A heat pad?! Awesome! Your chicks were put into the right hands. Can you get a pic of the one with splotches on its face? It sounds cute! I too have had Easter Eggers that don't look like feathered chipmunks. I have had two that were really pale yellow (Lemondrop/Angel and Honey). I can't get any pics, sorry. I also had one that was dark brownish grey (Dusty) and one who didn't have muffs (Sparkle). All so adorable!
Have fun with your peeps!

trying to figures out what this little one is

Are the feet feathered? I can't tell in the photo. Looks sort of like my Buff Brahmas as chicks.
