I just got my first six chicks yesterday and need advice please!

My first 12 chicks are about 5 1/2 weeks old, i'm not as nervous about them now

. It just takes time.

Thank you all sooo much for the responses and the warm welcomes!!! All of the little chicks are doing very well tonight. I did get them at a store (Farm and Fleet) so I am not exactly sure how old they are. I did have to take care of a couple of "pasty butts" but expected that. I think the more I research, the more I worry about. So I am going to just take care of them and enjoy watching unless I suspect there is a problem. I will post pictures as soon as I figure out how to do so. I will be needing the help figuring out what kind of chickens my babies are. They weren't much help at the store but that's OK, it will be fun to see and no matter what, they are already loved!!! Thanks again...
