My husband is going to kill me... I got some more D'Uccles and some D'Anvers from ebay... We're going to need to get some banty coops and runs going. Got any ideas I can use for little coops for the bantys?  I'm *hoping* to only have a handfull of each breed lol.

If your shipped eggs do like mine it will be only a couple. You could do the tractor thing..

Oh and THANK YOU LADIES for changing the time of the meet to a time that is better for me to attend! I am soooo looking forward to it..

Cute babies!

I just couldn't resist. I was out buying the last of the stuff I needed for setting up the new, bigger brooder before my Cackle Surprise chicks show up this week and I came home with a dozen bantams. Not super happy with their condition, as they almost all had some level of pasty butt and one didn't make it more than a few hours because of it. But the rest are clean and looking good under the heat plates.

Give them a bit of yolk water...

Here are 2 of mine that hatched...

The white/grey chick is a BCM/Isbar mix, it came from the dark egg in corner, the GLW is sitting near the empty shell.

Sorry you lost one. Hooray that you have more though!

Those are so adorable! Just wish there was a solid black one in there! And a teeny tiny.
