Our first chickies!! ***PICS***

very cute!!! i got 24 eggs in the bator due to hatch 3/25 and i picked of all days to visit our local tractor and supply store...on their very first "Chick Days"....
 
Thank you everyone. Everyone made it through the night with no problems at all. They are all very active, running around all over the place. I am holding one in a fuzzy blanket right now, she is snuggled down sleeping in my arms.

I got them from a local breeder. I am actually picking up some more BLRW this week from a different breeder who is a member here. heathersboares (I think I spelled that wrong, but it is something like that) I hope those are a healthy as these little guys are, these are the healthiest chicks I have ever seen.

LOL.. it is a dangerous situation. We were in tractor supply yesterday morning and my daughter almost had me broken down with the bantams... then the breeder called and said our chicks were ready to be picked up. whew.. great timing! I could feel myself caving.

lol!! so you had someone coercing you into premature chick activity!!!...i had no one at my side so it was easier to walk out...had we brought the children, it would have been a definite that I would have walked out with some of those cutie bantams...and then i would have been mad because they probably would have all been males...
 
Just picked up my very first 7 chicks today! I'm SO excited! They're in the basement in a cardboard box lined with paper towels and a heat lamp at 90 degrees. I've been down there watching them about 10 times today already. It's so cute to watch them be so sleepy they rock back/forth until they fall over. I really hope they all make it, as this is my first endeavor with chicks. Did I mention that I'm SO EXCITED!!????
 
They are so adorable...I'm so jealous. I won't be getting mine until 3/25.
