I got a young breeding pair...lemon blue bantam cochin cockerel and a brown red bantam cochin pullet, plus two silkie chicks that were of the same age as a singleton blue bantam cochin chick that I already had. The chick is very happy to have some company!! Also picked up 8 hatching eggs that I pre-arranged to have someone bring...I'm hoping I have better luck with these since the USPS didn't get a chance to shake them up and lose them for a few days.
My friend got two mixed pullets and one of them laid a very pretty dark olive egg today! The other should lay a brown egg.
We had so much fun. This was a first for both of us and we couldn't stop ohh'ing and awe'ing and giggling as we walked around looking at every single chicken there. We definitely looked the part of newbies. Definitely looking forward to going to other shows in the future!
