Thank you !! They are doing great. In a couple of days I am going to try to move them to an outdoor pen (run) with their heat lamp and covered with a tarp. I have 3 inside dogs that just want to get to them and eat them. Has been like a circus trying to move them around today.(The dogs) Gonna do it during the day so I can watch the temp and get my heat lamp placed just right.
New to all this, so I am gonna ask dumb question. I have read the term straight run. Does that mean not sexed? These were not sexed so I hope I don't end up with a pen full of roosters. Out of my 6, 6 week olds I think 3 are roos. So some will have to go. Praying that these are mostly hens !!!!
They were only about 40 minutes away. But did fine traveling.

if you later find out that you have a roo or too many i will be willing to give one of them a good home

You're going to have such a beautiful flock.

Yes you are! Precious little birds. Yes you got it right! Straight run means un-sexed. ( I only learned that about a month ago myself) lol!

Have fun!

Love, Mallary

OH! they are So pretty! I wish I could find some of these in Canada.It seems all the breeds I really like I can't find. except my Brahma's.

I love them. the roo's are the NICEST boys! They love to be pet & held etc.. And they treat the girls very nicely(most of the time) .
