When to expect MPC chicks? *Pic. heavy (p.4)*

[hangin'witthepeeps]

Look at my post on the other forum. I did not want to hijac Kargo original post. I still am unsure what I got. I ordered the 25 rainbow pullet special from MPC.

No chicks yet. I called the post office and they had just got in their afternoon shipment and no chirping boxes. I guess I will have to wait until tom.

I am so sorry...but also relieved. These are my first ever chicks, and I was so down this morning that the PO didn't call me...figuring I was the only person in the world (it felt that way

) that didn't get my chicks. Plus, I'm worried about the chicks being in transit so long...ohio to indiana isn't the other side of the moon. I'm not sure why that would take two days for express??? Oh well...tomorrow we can both celebrate

This is my first batch of chicks as well. I would have thought that they would have made it to VA in 1 day. Hope to get that call tom. and to see some pics of everyone else's new chicks.

I got 13 silver wyandottes today! They weren't there for the morning shipment, but came in the afternoon, and I'm from NH. Not sure why the ones closer to Ohio didn't get theres? When we called customer service last week they said they used a few different hatcheries, maybe some aren't in Ohio? Who knows, anyways, just happy to report that all 13 of my chipmunk look-alike fluffballs are happy, healthy, and pasty butt free! Yay!

Can you post some pics so I'll be able to compare when my Rainbows come next week, as I requested Silver and/or Golden Wyandottes?

Does the packing slip indicate which hatchery they shipped from?

Thank you and enjoy your little ones.

Got my 26 (they added a packing peanut) EE's today all alive and already drinking/eating like little piggies.

I am amazed that they arrived within 24 hours from Ohio to NYC. WOW.....good service....beautiful peeps. Theyae all different colors which is exciting!
Will add pics later on, gotta run for now!

Sorry for the camera phone quality... I'll try to get some good ones later with the normal camera! Just the red light giving the picture that weird effect.

Does anyone know what their poop should be like? For some reason it always concerns me when poop is different at all. I'm wondering if it's affected by the green goo in the shipping or not...

Also, I don't know what my mother did with the slip, but the sticker on the box says CLE, perhaps standing for Cleveland?

How cute. Looks like you have lots of room in the brooder for them.

Can't wait to see the other pics.
