I needed somewhere to express my excitement of our new additions! We purchased all 9 (darn chicken math!!) from a lady who happens to live in the same township as we do. 3 hatched on 3/17, and we picked them up on 3/24. Then I got an email really late on 3/30 that the others were starting to hatch, so by early afternoon on Easter, they were here and doing well. We picked them up yesterday, and finally have them all named 
We have Blu, a blue grey bird, and his mini me we got yesterday and named the new one Ray.
We have Chir (chirper, pronounced Cher), black with a yellow face and black mask, and his little mini me named Little Chir
We have Blackie (named for a pool hall back home) because his head looks like an eight ball.
We have creme one with skunk stripes named Gremmie
An almost all white one with a few black spots named Snowball
And we have two very black ones with red faces. They almost didn't make it home together (we were only going to get one), so my 7 year old named them Haley and Comet for the song Second Chance by Shinedown.
They are all getting along fairly well. They are all mixed breed. I cannot remember the mixes, but she told me. I am pretty sure she said Ameracauna, Orpington, and Easter Egger for sure, but beyond those specifics, I can't remember. I saw the birds, though, and they are all large and beautiful!!! Hoping ours take the same route and temperament.
