You've already named them? Have you had the eggs ultrasounded to verify gender?

Haha!!! Well, I got the ultrasound verified from the feed store that they are for sure all girls!!!! XD

Got my order in at the feed store today!!! It's alright if they're all a week apart right??? Nissley's (my feed store) didn't have the breeds that I'm getting all coming in on the same day, so I'm getting one each week. March 21st the Buff Orpington Omelette, March 28th the Ameraucana Pippy, and April 4th the Barred Rock Hedwig.

Mine are already named and they are 15 and a half weeks away...




Farmer, they should do fine. Introduce them slowly and keep an eye on them to make sure the younger ones aren't getting pecked. I might separate the youngest one with fence or something they can see through so that she doesn't get picked on too badly by the older two, if I were you. Also, be prepared for the first one to be VERY noisy until she gets some friends.

Oh yea. They are going to come to school with me!! (Don't worry I'm homeschooled, so they'll be doing school with me anyways. XD) I'm going to be watching over them like a hawk. Yea, I was thinking that too. So, my older chickens I got a mirror for, so I'll stick a small mirror in with the chick, to have a "buddy" for a week.

Aww. That ought to be cute, watching her interact with her reflection.

(And that's pretty cool about the homeschooling. I was homeschooled, too, when I was younger; I'm in college now. )

Oh yea. My hens have a mirror in their coop and they love it. XD It's hysterical to see their reaction.
(Thanks!! I really like it. I can spend time with my animals and take care of them in this cold weather [10 degrees] I go out about every hour to the to unfreeze the water and check on 'em.)
