Want to get chicks....now.

[Silkie2]

I got them!! will post pictures soon. just a few things that worry me

apparntly only the cochins were pullets and the "bantams" (they never specified bantams) are straight run. i'm not a fan of this feed store to begin with, but its the only one we have around here. praying that the four are all female!!!!
Everyone seems lively except for only one silkie. she's (hopefully "she") just sitting on her butt. she does try to get up and huddle under the other chicks but i can't get her to drink that much (i put probiotics and electrolytes in there water) she looks really tired unlike the others. could she just be tired?


pictures coming soon (2 silkies, 1 frizzle, 1 cochin)

Silkies and frizzles are bantams and always straight run unless you order from my pet chicken.

X2....vent sexing bantams is problematic due to their size, most reputable sources don't risk it and opt to sell them straight run

Ohhhh ok! Makes sense

Pics!

(They do have a heat lamp)
Brown spotted one is the frizzle. Big dark, dark, brown one is the cochin and the two small black ones are silkies.
‘(Black) friday’ and ‘merle’ for the silkies names. Cochin and frizzle are yet to be named (name ideas are appreciated)
