Congrats and welcome to the wonderful world of chickens. I have had chickens for 2 yrs. now and I still get such joy from them. Best of luck on the new arrivals.

yay!!!!!!!!! Have fun with them! I hope all goes well!

Thanks. I feel like the crazy lady. I have called the post office and warned them of the arrival..... I think I have checked the temps and brooder at least a dozen times today. I am so ready and so not ready.... We have only had adult chickens from a auction. We love them but now we have 4 different breeds coming and to have them right from the very beginning is so exciting. We have a big farm house and 20 acres of farm land and a large barn. We are going to start with more chickens and see how it goes. No sleep tonight. Thanks for the well wishes everyone. Also, thanks for letting me know I am not alone in the "chick crazies" type of way. They shipped this afternoon so maybe tomorrow morning.

They are here!! After a trip to a post office 2 cities over.... The postal lady called freaked out that she had live chicks in her post office. HA HA it was so funny. She is in the city and they dont get many live deliveries. I offered to get directions and come pick them up, but she was so freaked out by it she sent her delivery guy and delivered to my house. They are so cute and all seem healthy. They were a little cold when I got them but now they seem fine. Here are some pics. I dont know what is what. We ordered silver laced wyndottes and bantams and seabrites (please forgive my spelling of the breeds). Easter eggers and the surprise brown egg layers. I dont know what the reddish orange is but she is already my favorite.... How fun!!! I can see how this can be addicting.

I am trying to figure out the picture thing.
