These six cute fluff balls arrived bright and early this morning. They were a little cold when I took them out of their shipping box, but they found the heater right away in the brooder. Now the countdown to eggs begins!
I'll also be picking up 25 more this afternoon at the feed store-- check back for pictures!

Five of the chicks were huddled together for warmth when I opened the box this morning. |

The Blue Cochin chick seemed to be alright on her own. I hope she's not being discriminated against because she's got feathers on her legs :-(. |

There are six different breeds of chicks (I'm not entirely sure what's what, yet): The gray chick is a Blue Cochin. She's joined by a Buff Orpington (the light yellow chick?), a Cinnamon Queen/Golden Buff/Red Star (the golden chick?), a Silver Laced Wyandotte, an Australorp, and a Dominque. |
