Proud new parent to baby chicks

[clothdiaperingmom]

Hello,
I am now a proud parent of baby chicks!!
3 Buff Orpingtons
3 Rhode Island Reds
3 Polish Crested

Just got them today, but 1 of the RIRs doesnt seem to be as active as the others...so Im wondering if she is going to make it. The 3 cresteds seem to be more active then the other 6.
I still have to get Australorps but they were out. 3 of those and my standard flock will be complete for now.
Will be trying (and I say trying as its my 1st time) to hatch 12 sillkies and 18 bantam cochins.

Yay!! Im excited. I would add pics but cant get the pc to recognize that my card is in at the moment.

Congratulations and Welcome.

Have you given them any sugar water? That might perk them up a bit.

We got 2 each of Black stars, Australorps, Ameracaunas and WellSummers (we got drawn in on the "they're extremely rare" sign) at the feed store today. I've had this day marked on my calendar since we picked up feed a week or two ago. I've had the general timeframe marked since we got our hens at the end of summer.

P.S. One of my Black stars has a bald derriere. Should I be worried, or could this have been a pasting over treatment from before? We've seen her peck the area once.
