Got a call at 7:05 am to come pick up my babies from MM at the post office; all 82 of them !! We arrived and you could hear them chirping from the door. They needed me !! They are all healthy and running around. We received Dark Cornish, Buttercups, Crevecoeurs, Leghorns, Jumbo Cornish, Barred Rocks, and Black Giants. My Cackle Hatchery order should come in sometime today !!!! AAAAGGHH!! The waiting has been the hardest part. I have always raised chickens and never ordered from a hatchery, but after reading how everyone at this website (which is WONDERFUL I might add for a chicken lover!) has ordered babies and they arrive OK we tried it !!! I will post pics today or tomorrow.lol

Wow, that's a lot of chickens!!

Interesting breeds, too.

I picked up my new babies from the feed store about an hour ago. Just six this time!

50 of them are for meat and the others that I won't use for eggs are sold in the fall. They are beautiful !!!
