The title pretty much describes my arrival today:
This is a pile of red star pullets (50) with one bearded and muffed skunk, prolly an EE cockerel. Every single chick is active and energetic. They are a very inquisitive bunch of girls. I always buy from McMurray, always happy.
Nice rainbow on the way back from the post office too but I didn't have the camera then.
I also had to integrate my lonesome two week old araucana chick, Poppy. I figured Poppy would be excited as all heck since his/her baby sitter has been either me or one of my ploddish Uromastyx lizards. Poppy was NOT happy at first with the new chicks but is now settled in and showing them the ropes.

I have two six year old red stars. They lay very nicely still, extra large to jumbo brown shell eggs 5 to 6 days a week. This is an excellent egg layer and they are my quietest, least aggressive chickens.
