To make a long story short, I ordered 27 chicks from MM and 6 ultimately survived the first shipment, none survived the replacement shipment which came in today.
If any of you are bored and just want to read about that here are the forum links to those sad stories.

Now for the HAPPY news
. I opted for a refund from MM and went to Atwoods (our local farm supply store).
I purchased a huge box of fuzzballs. I already had 4 EE's, 1 Blue Andalusian, one black frizzle cochin bantam, all from MM, and two other cochins(?)(from Atwoods last week).
Three pictures will be posted below. I have three brooders setup for now.
I am absolutely still learning to identify breeds, and with the exception of the 6 white leghorns (that's what the girl at Atwoods told me
), I have no earthly idea what the others are.
I will post individual pics on the forum for 'what breed is this'.
These are all the bantams, please feel free to speculate on breed if you want
These are the EE's, 1 Blue Andalusian, and others, heck I could be wrong about all of them
And, these are the supposed White Leghorns, and others I can't identify.
