I got some chicks today!

Mrs. Fluffy Puffy :

Yesterday I called a chicken breeder to see if he had any chicks because I waqs going into town the next day and he said he had some silkies hatching that night and the next morning, so I told him to save me 4 of the silkies. So when I went over to his house today he had abunch of chicks, RIR, BR, JG and all kinds of stuff. He showed me the 4 silkies he put aside for me and there were 5 he said one of them was a frizzled that he though was a silkie, he asked if I wanted that one, too? I said yes I wanted that one, too! lol
So then he went and got a Japanese bantam that was very tiny and said that was the only bantam he had left ... I think he was trying to get me to buy it so I did then I saw he had Jersey Giants! I always wanted some Jersey Giants so I bough 1 Black Giant and one Blue Giant. So instead of 4 chicks I come home with 8 ...

Also today I got 1 Buff Orpington hen, 1 Molted Houdan hen, 1 White silkie roo, and 1 Buff Silkie hen from a friend so I came home with 12 chickens ... ? How that happened I'll NEVER KNOW!!!!

The silkie chicks I got were: 3 Buff Silkies and 1 White silkie. I think the Jap chick is white. The frizzled? I'll post a picture of him in a little bit. Then a black JG and a Blue JG!! Will post pictures later!!

You might want to be careful, because Buff Orpingtons get picked on by other hens easly because of their docile nature...but, if you have a roo, that probly wont matter...​

They don't even notice her at all.

Well the Black chick and the Blue chicks are both Jersey Giants. And the black one was already a few weeks old when I got him.

I took them outside a few minutes ago and they were all taking dust baths! But I had to take them in because they're getting really hot. I'll post pictures as soon as I get them off the camera.

I don't know for sure what happened, but one of her toes is all messed up and it's all smooshed kind of. It's hard to explain.

But her other foot is just fine and she can get around just fine. But she always has pasty stuff on her rear that I have to get off. Why does she always have that stuff on her rear?
