They're on the Way!!!

I've got a shipment of chicks coming hopefully today(possibly tomorrow). They are currently sitting 45 minutes away at one of the distribution centers so I'm hopeful they'll call me here in a bit to come get them. Hoping they get to the post office before 4 I'll try to get pictures to share after everyone is in the brooder for a while and doing well. I ordered 10 Easter Egger pullets, 2 Easter Egger cockerels, 5 salmon faverolle pullets and add 1 "Homestead Helper" cockerel to the bunch! Excited to see them when they get here!

I only took a picture of a few as they all kind of favor and I didn't know if I was picking up the same one over and over My hubby who didn't want the chickens to begin with has placed a "claim" on the little red one with white wings! He/She is a cutie! I also don't know which are my females and which are my males with the Easter Eggers because they aren't banded. Didn't take pictures of the salmon faverolles either because they are still a bit jet lagged.

They are here! Post office called me right after lunch. We did lose 1 of the salmon faverolles But everybody else is getting warmed up in the brooder and eating the green gel they sent. Pictures coming shortly!

Where did you buy them?
Once i had a shipment of chicks 40 minutes away that arrived at a distrbution center as well. It took 16 hours for them to ship to post office! not trying to discourage you send some pictures.

Meyer Hatchery is where I got these guys

Looks like you got a good bit of variety on them for colors which is super nice . Love the darker brown colored one. Hopefully they all are getting adjusted to their new home .
