Not the greatest pictures but will take more later. One shows the inside of the box a little. I don't think there was a heat pack but there was a cup of grow gel for each one. Currently setting up their brooder that they'll call home as their new coop is being delivered today. Wasn't really expecting them so soon

HUZZAH!

I'm sorry to hear this! I hope he finds something else very quickly!

<hugs> Thinking good thoughts for you and your family.

I am not as brave as you guys, I don't let anyone near my chickens. They could bring something in on their shoes. I isolate an acre away from my coops and they are last ones done. Then I come in and shower. Yup OCD!

If they have animals I bleach their shoes. I do the same thing if I go anywhere with animals. That and wear shoes wihtout a ton of tread. I have an "auction" pair of shoes that does not go anywhere but the car too for checking out auctions and shows. So many animals there you KNOW there is crap regardless of how careful people are, its like chicken kindergarden.
But we are not farm country, so there is less being passed around in the first place.

Oh no, what did you do to him?

I didn't do anything to him. YET. He better be nicer. Maybe I will just send you the pair??? That's a thought. He might like you. He hates me.

you would quote him the price of the box (plus the shipping to get it to you, or have him direct order it to ship to you)

Then the EXPRESS USPS shipping from you to him for a max weight of 20lbs total (which includes the weight of the box) or less if you weight your birds and they are light weights

what type of chickens?
Age?

Sumatras and all three were early spring hatch so almost a year old

its almost 5, gotta go put everyone up, but let me know if you have questions about that box and shipping I can help answer them for you. Its simple really, just stressful the first time as you dont know what to expect.

Thank you. We'll see if we can come to terms on bird price first. I'll PM you if we do.

well the breeds i'm really interested in are:Ameraucana , LF & bantam Cochin, polish (but especially tolbunt lol), and of course isbar & ccl. BUT will hatch anything, I do have a fun mix pen and a few open poems for new breeds. i'm heading to a brewery right now to begin my first time trying to feed spent grains...curing down feed cost.

Chicken fever what breeds are you interested in, or just hatching eggs in general?

 

[chicken fever]

y'all r going to make me cry..! I seriously have the best byc friends ever!!! if I can ever help y'all out plz ask!

This is exactly what I was thinking.  I'm not swapping my Blues and Sumatra for another week and a half because they wound up together during the snow storm at Christmas.  It is highly unlikely they "crossed" but possibility.  If you don't mind the possibility I can send you whatever is laid tomorrow and Saturday of those and my Sicilian Buttercup Bantams and my EE/EE cross.  PM me your info if you want them.
