My post office called at 3:30 this morning! Last 2 times it was 5:30. Boy, were they wound up too! Love getting new chickies first thing in the morning.

Ok guys, sorry it took most of the day for pics, But here they are. I ordered from Ideal, and the box said they hatched at 10am on the 13th. The ones with the green spot above the beak are my SLW packing peanuts.

Warning: They're really cute!!!

I was just fixing to get up to get DD off to school and was like "who the heck is calling me???" but jumped right up out of bed and was instantly awake and going (very not like me) when the lady said "we have some chicks here for you." I'm glad it was early, because DD got to go with me and she didn't even miss the bus!

I couldn't believe they called that early! I about died when I looked at the clock. Not even sure what I said to the lady on the phone.

I had set some clothes out the night before thank goodness. I threw them on and out the door I went. I can't wait to get home and watch them after work!

I can only tell them apart because I made sure the ones I ordered looked different and had them mark the peanuts. LOL! SLW is Silver Lace Wyandotte, that's what they wrote on my packing slip.

 

[Hopeful Peacock]

and what do you plan to do with the "packing peanuts"?
