WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? WHAT DID YOU JUST RECEIVE?

[Oatbucket]

Well I made the trip to Denver, stayed up all night as one of the shipments would not update. Left at 7am though and by 9am I got the call both boxes of chicks had arrived and were waiting for me. Got there at 11:30 and when I walked in the door I could hear them! Music to my ears after all the heartache of last weeks loss! So 21 in all and they are all doing great. We are back home in Nebraska and they are settled in. All are drinking and eating (I am using the nipple waterer and they went right to it!) Now I am trying to figure out who is what! I havent identified my Welsummers, Easter Eggers, Cream Legbar and Ameraucana. Thank you for all the prayers and thoughts while I traveled today to get them. I knew it should not turn out like last week, but that was so awful I could not go through that again.

Yay! I'm so happy for you!

My girlfriend and I have four Buff Orpingtons leaving Cackle Hatchery on Wednesday. We are hoping that since we are only two states away in Wisconsin that they will be here on Thursday, we shall see!

We are picking up the last couple things for the brooder tomorrow so we will be ready when they are delivered. Though it was her idea at first, I've found myself getting really excited about them getting here. Will be starting the coop this weekend!

First off,

& the thread MKEChicken! Hope your chicks arrive safe and sound!

My girls arrived! They are all napping now after a long trip and some hard boiled egg. And I'm addicted to chick tv!

My feather legged bantams arrived today from Ideal. I ordered 25 and got 27. They were only $1. each + shipping. All arrived alive but one has an injured leg. They have bantam and other advertised specials for this coming week. Surprise pullets are only $1.65 each black sex link and barred rock pullets $1.75 each bantams $1.20 each + meat birds.

We got our babies yesterday! 3 Barred Rocks, 3 Buff Orps, 2 Welsummers and 2 Easter Eggers. All arrived healthy and happy and they were at my house within 24 hrs of hatching!! We ordered them from Meyer Hatchery.
I didn't realize how much fun they would be to watch and how calming I find their little peeps!

Wait until you go in to see them and see one laying on its side all sprawled out... I freaked thinking it had died! Then it jumped up and started running around! Also funny when they just stop and lower their beak and fall asleep right where they stand. They really are fun to watch

Congrats on your new arrivals!
