My chick order came today, now what?

I think you should immediately post pics.

In fact, I'm pretty sure that is one of the rules here on BYC, you must post pics of new chicks and then regular update pics as they grow.

Sorry about the loss of the chick. Shipping can be pretty rough on the little guys and some just don't recover. The others should be fine.

I'm there with you on watching them. Mine are a week old and I still sit and watch them. It's better than the tv.

I'm so sorry... please, you may want to get two infrared heat lamps for that many chicks so they don't all crowd in together and possibly smother the most inwardly ones of the group, trying to get closer to just one lamp.

Such beautiful babies! I was told my baby was possibly a black cochin, but looks just like yours. Could he/she be an australorp? Has the same multi colored eye rings, like she smeared her mascara. What do you think?
