I have comfrey from Hinotori, and it is beautiful ! But yet just a single plant, do you need some ?
I need more mint, any flavour !

I have lemon balm?

No go for it ! And then you can take a class. I have never taken an art class ever in my life, even in HS we did normal art, no oil or water color paintings. I started with drawing, horses horses horses, and then pen & ink, and then water color & oils. I do 2 kinds of water color, 1 is the wishy washy water color: Like this one. It takes about 10 minutes to do, once calculated out. Then there is the glazing water color, which takes months, and every hair is painted on every animal: And these are all very big paintings, on 300# rag, Aquarelle. And then I haul off & paint the crazy globby oil paintings ! Crazy !!! Maybe my soul needs to "let go" once in a while !

Omg those are amazing! Maybe we should just get together and you can teach me how to be amazing! I've taken class's but I mostly learn from doing, but I have no idea how to use oil? I suppose that's what youtube is for

Ok, firstly... Ideal Hatchery must be giving steroid shots along with the Marek's. I have NEVER seen chicks eat like this! All 8 are doing well eatting and drinking. I've just never seen this young of chicks eat so constantly and voraciously. I can't find my bloody heatlamp (thanks construction workmen!). I rigged up a deal with a spaceheater on one side. Oh, I am using a kiddie pool surrounded by a wire coil cover (big black plastic ring. About 4 ft diameter). As everyone is uber active, eating and drinking, and sound like happy crickets (instead of screaming banshees)... I will assume the temp is to their liking. My electric bill will not be to MY liking!

I have lemon bee balm, lemon catmint, and lemon verbena! Two types of chamomile - roman and German, feverfew, holy basil, angelica, borage, and a bunch of crap I can't remember while lying on my bed.

WOW I would have bet good money that you had their premisis set up with heat lamp & tub & food & feeders and all the niceties, weeks ago.
Hopefully every thing works out...sideways heat really does not go in a brooder.....wid=sh I was closer to help !!! It is cold right now !
Good news that they are hungry ! Watch they do not start to huddle...then ya know they are too chilled.
Fingers crossed for you !
