Oh congrats on your babies.

We have 6 new babies too, several born late last night, thru the night and the last two mid morning. Three are my English orps and man are they whoppers.

Can't wait for them to fluff so I can get some pics.

Miss Lydia, Thank you so much for your pointers, I am VERY happy to hear that I can get away without electricity in the coop. The coop is a good 200+ feet from the closest electric outlet, phew!! I think we are looking more at layers than for meat (especially since I have NO clue where a butcher is, and I am NOT about to learn how to do that...if I had to, I'd probably end up being a vegetarian

) Although, we'd love to have both!! In my research, I was leaning towards "hardy" breeds...mainly because I thought the pictures were so CUTE!!

So far, my "wish" list includes: Wyandotte, Orpingtons, Cochins, Jerseys, and Buckeyes (to pay homage to my "home state"

). If I keep doing all of this research though, I might end up needing to buy some more land so I can supersede BHep!!

HT...we are dying to see these pictures!!

If I can post a picture of my coop in progress, I have faith that you will be able to post a photo of your new babies. I can tell you we are all SUPER EXCITED

to see these photos!!

I will continue to "stalk" this thread until I see photos!!
