Hello, we ordered chicks three weeks ago from My Pet Chicken. They were shipped out yesterday and got here today.

That is a day before we expected since they came from Ohio (I think) and we are in AZ. I opened the box and all looked good. We put them in the brooder and everyone is doing great!!! The smallest australorp wasn't as active as the rest so I made some sugar water and put it in a seringe and she drank away at it. Now she is up and running around with the rest.

Here are some pictures for all to enjoy!

First opened the box:

Put in the brooder:

Doing what chicks do (eat and poo):

Now the close ups!!!

(I am guessing to the best of my knowledge who is what

)

The Easter Eggers
Her cheek feathers are so fluffy by her eyes they cover half of her eyes.

One with little stripes.

The blondee (now named Monroe after Marilyn Monroe)

Black Austrolorps:
The littlest girl.

The second aus. couldn't get a good pic but she has less white on her head.

Wyandotte:
Silver Laced

Golden Laced

I will keep the pics comming I know they grow way to fast. Littlefeat, my pet chicken was great ordering from. I called them a couple times to ask questions and they were very helpful. Plus when I picked up the chicks today the post office said they were the best packaged chicks they have seen come threw.
