I thought so too! My husband wasn't as impressed.

I got basically the same deal with my brahmas and silkies

Way to go! That's awesome! I'm excited about the brahmas. They're babies and already weigh a ton more than the others.

My hubby felt the same way when the feed store called to let me know my Lt Brahma pullets had arrived. I hatched out nine early this spring but all but two seem to be boys, so I had to have a few more pullets, right? Right??? Anyway, he has announced that he is now officially okay with me selling some of the extra chicks, so it's all good if I can sell them...

So almost all of my eggs from the last batch I ordered are a bust... only one croad langshan surviving. buuutttt I ordered more eggs to replace them so I’ll still have some for the July hatch, and the others that will be coming to set the first week of July. more golden crele legbars, some ice cream bars, and some salmon faverolles. Fingers crossed these poor things are handled properly by the post.

Mine are all pullets I think. They sent the wrong chicks to TSC and they were not sure what they were.

Hope the post is kind to your eggs. Here they've been running slow, but the post lady assured me it's getting better.

Your tsc must get cooler breeds than mine. Mine are supposed to be pullets, but I'm hoping I got a brahma cockerel.

I must not. I can not. I will not. Why am I in this thread? What am I thinking?
2 days sleep deprived here...waiting on the last two eggs in the bator to pop from the June hatch, cranky as all heck despite multiple caffeine refills today...yet here I am to see what you guys are going to set.
Telling myself I will enjoy from afar...
I will only enjoy from afar.
Way afar!

*cough*

Not to cool. Just the normal breeds.
