so I've placed my order with McMurray for 13 LF cochins of assorted colors (it was a split order, 30 in all) this past saturday. It's been 1 full day and I'm already considering setting up my brooder and buying all of my baby supplies. They aren't due to arrive until April 25th or 26th

So, I guess the real question is-how does everyone stay sane until their new fuzzy wuzzies arrive????? I'm so strickin with fuzzy butt fever that I have no idea how I'm going to survive until they come, and since this seems to be a disease alot of you on this forum catch at some point or another I'm wondering how you cope?????

I coped by buying an incubator and hatching my own eggs - now that they are 10 days old I am going to get Buckeye eggs and hatch some more, then when those get old enough I will hatch some more.......it is chicken math!!!! One or two or three are never enough, but they don't really count since my bator is empty and I have another brooder box that is empty.......good way to cope!!!! haha - good luck with waiting!
 
Alcohol and a good book helps . . .

I was waiting on edge for my new fuzzies, which I just picked up last weekend. I feel your pain - it was an excruciating wait!
But it's all worth it when you've got your little peepsters. Spend your time organizing and re-organizing and re-re-organizing your brooder setup - give the temp a test-drive, wash your feeders and waterers for the umpteenth time, make sure the shavings haven't all vanished into thin air . . . in other words, spend your time "nesting"!
