Baby Chicks Arrive!

28 female chicks arrived in the mail at our Post Office in a “cheeping” box. They will stay warm under their heat lamp in the brooder until they grow big enough to go outside in the chick pen. They have been vaccinated for diseases and we are hopeful they all will grow into beautiful and productive hens. The breeds are Pearl White Leghorn, Light Brahmas, Columbian Wyandotte, Red Star, Speckled Sussex, Barred Rock, Buff Orpington, White Rock, Silver Laced Wyandotte, Partridge Rock, Cuckoo Maran, Araucana, and Silver Spangled Hamburgs.
