It is one of the many places that will send chicks. My experience with them has been great so far. I chose them because they had what we wanted and they were in close proximity to us.

Ok. Here is a 4 week update. We have lost only one chick. The white leghorn. It died about 3 days after we received them for no apparent reason. All the others appear healthy and are thriving.

Please help me continue to identify the sex and breeds of the bantams and also give your opinion about the rare pullet peanut.

Here is a picture of the brooder we made from the trampoline box the kids got for Christmas.

Rare pullet peanut?

This picture shows what happens as soon as the lid comes off. Also shows a comparison of the peanuts. The dark one on the left is the one pictured above.

Here are the bantams I need help with.

Thanks for the help.

I'm orderign later in the spring from someplace that doesn't do "Peanuts" I'm almost bummed. I always enjoy the extras, finding out what they are then selling or having free meat birds.

I think two of your bantams are EE bantams - or as they call them, "ameraucana" bantams. I'm guessing that based on leg and feather colors. The white one may be, too, but I just don't know.
