The wife bought Silkie Bantams...how do I keep these things alive?

Well, it has been a few days since the last one died. The two survivors are holding strong. Picked up a new brood of silkies yesterday and picking up another small brood of silkies on Monday.

Hang in there! How many in each of these two new broods? We're rooting for you!

6 birds per brood. Locally sourced from local farms. The six I picked up already are all buff silkies except one is a buff frizzle. I was going to pick up 6 black silkies today, but had to push that trip to tomorrow because they are 2 hours away and I have outstanding school work that’s due tonight. Tried to finish that yesterday and I fell asleep at the computer.
