You will all think me very silly to be so excited, and, of course, its no news to you, but I'm just THRILLED. These are my first chickens and I'm pretty darn excited.
My order from Privitt Hatchery arrived less than 48 hours after they were shipped. They seem very healthy, bright and alert. They are all eating and drinking. I'm going to get another, larger wading pool so they won't be the least be over crowded, since I neglected to get their beaks trimmed. And I think they need another waterer and another feeder.
The first bag of crumbles is medicated. Then I'll switch to unmedicated. The temperature is around 94 degrees right under the light and, much to my surprise, they are actually capering around like twin colts!
I better go look at them again...and again, and again!
