Husband has bronchitis.
Chicks are due tomorrow.
Today I co-organized a potluck/St. Pat's party at church, and danced with the Irish Dancers. I cooked 20 pounds of corned beef and 20 pounds of potatoes and cabbage.
So what do we get this morning?
A call from the Salem, Oregon, post office announcing our chicks had arrived, and that we could get them today or wait for tomorrow. Like there's a question!?!
No casualties, but we have extra birds! We're now brooding 14 Black stars, 26 Buff Orpingtons, and 7 Golden Laced Polish in a large cardboard box.
Husband WILL finish the new brooder tomorrow. I sat down trying to figure out what our rare and fancy bird was, but there were only three colors. I counted...14 black...no. They said there were 26 BO's....
I GOT AN EXTRA ROCKSTAR!!!!
Yay for baby chicks!
