Who else got some 2013 chicks?!

[ToledoClucker]

Got my 2013 order a week ago from Meyer Hatchery. We ordered:

1. Barred Rock x 2
2. Partridge Cochin x 3
3. Light Brahma x 3
4. Buff Brahma x 1
5. Silver Laced Wyandotte x 2
6. Buff Orpington x 1
7. Silver-Laced Wyandotte x 2
8. Rhode Island Red x 1

All arrived in good health and doing well after a week. Lost our flock of 6 last year to a raccoon, so trying again this year with a reinforced coop and run. Chicks are in their makeshift brooder in the basement for now until they are large enough to go outside (and it warms up!).

Good luck with your new flock. I love chicks, but probably won't get any this year, unless we expand the coop and run. ; (

I just ordered my chicks, five of each:

Gold Laced Wyandotte
RIR
Speckled Sussex
Barred Plymouth Rock
White Leghorns

I have all the stuff I need for them, almost have the brooder ready (garden tub in the barn), and have a bit to finish on the coop. I have awhile to wait, but I am excited. Hope they make it here ok! I'm new to this too, haven't had chickens in so long, have forgotten everything!
