Is anyone else waiting for a chick order? CHICK PICS!!

[slaird61]

That will be next week. My chicks are due to ship out either Tuesday or Wednesday. I'm so excited!

My babies are here!

They are so adorable!

I got a pretty good assortment from the looks of things...gonna upload some pictures here shortly...not sure what breeds they are as I am no good at guessing these things. LOL!

They seem to all be doing very well...I lost two during the shipping.

But, everyone else is healthy, eating, drinking and pooping.

Has anyone gotten any from Ideal that hatched yesterday? I can't find a local number for our post office. My daughter has her first soccer game today but I don't want to not have anyone at the house just in case they come today.

Are you having the regular mail carrier bring them? I went to our post office a couple days before mine were due, gave them my number (which is also on the label) and asked them to call me. They called as soon as the truck got in and my daughter went & got them. They arrived just after 10 a.m., but our carrier doesn't come until 4:30. I wanted to save them the extra 6-1/2 hours in a box.

When I got my order from Ideal they hatched on Tuesday and arrived on Thursday. So if yours hatched yesterday you should get them tomorrow morning. Urgh all this chick talk is making me tempted to order more. LOL!

You should try going on youtube and look for McMurray hatchery. They have videos of a bunch of different chick breeds and list the traits and colors possible. It really helped me identify my chicks.
