I have never had chickens before in my life but I ordered a Rainbow Layer Assortment from McMurray (25 chicks and 3 extra Auracaunas, the free exotic, and a free Auracana and another "packing peanut") and after worrying myself silly because they hadn't arrived yet, they arrived this morning. 31 chicks, really, really loud and all alive. Two have been a little sluggish but they are smaller than the others and have both drank water and eaten so we'll see about them. I think the Auracaunas are the chipmunk looking ones but is there a reference site somewhere that has pics of chicks so I can figure out what the rest are? I have black ones with white bellies, gold ones, lighter yellow ones, leopard spot ones and chipmunk ones. There are darker and lighter chipmunk ones but I would like to know the real names.
It's bad enough that my husband has already named one of these girls Jeremy. I think he forgot that it's an all girl thing.l
