[jojufarm]

Our Australorp Black came in today 26 of them. all looking good. when i want to pick them up a USPS them came in a little 12"x12" box i thought it was going to be alot bogger. I made a brooder 24"x96" way to big. so for now there in a plastic carry all. when they get bigger i'll move them to the bigger one.

there just so cute.

Gorgeous babies! The brooder will come in handy as they grow. Just make sure they are warm enough and congrats!

They are very pretty! I have 30 in a 60" x 27" brooder and they are going to need bigger diggs by this weekend. I only have 5 aussies but they are very good layers!
