Gosh, after reading so many horror stories I was convinced that when I got my 15 chicks, half would be dead. So I was pretty surprised when I picked them up at the post office and ALL of them were alive and WILD!

One had a broken toe, but I'm sure that happened during shipping. It was taped up to heal straight. While I was doing that, the chicks learned to eat and drink all on their own! They were hoovering everything in sight before I even got back to them. The one with the broken toe, now has a straight toe and everyone is healthy and very much alive. I'll definitely be ordering from Meyer again

With my lone turkey that hatched out the day before. You can't see it, but she has a chick sleeping between her legs. She's at the very back napping:

And Diva, the chick that rightfully earned her name the first day:
