Today, after being in DM yesterday, and having a friend come from DM to here this morning, we got a call from Amanda at USPS. Our chicks were in, and had been there since 2:30 yesterday, and if we would like, we can come get them! :) So, since Tory was already here, Eric and Ben ran up to get them. While I frantically got things together for them. We were, as usual, not quite ready for them. Luckily, these are our second batch of 'guinea pigs', so we had a good idea of what needed to be done. I don't remember them ever being this small!!! (or this LOUD! :) We have a very vocal Silkie, now named Chirpy-Chirpy-Chirps-Alot (Chirpy for short). The crested ones look like they have mullets to me. The Silkies are tiny!!! The sent us an extra 2 of the broilers, and our rare bird is a feather-footed!!! My guess is it's a black cochin, but it may be a partridge--it looks like a little penguin, so, that's why I'm guessing the black... and I am boring you. (I wore two magazines out, flipping through them!!!) The ducklings will be arriving later this week!!!
We have three of the crested breed, and Tory suggested that we should call them Travis--since the people that seem to hold onto the mullet also seem to be all named Travis. :) ((No offense to anyone named Travis, with or without a mullet ;) ))
