We got our baby chicks on Wednesday this week. They came in the mail and I picked them up at the post office. Boy their chirping got loud in the car!

We ordered 25 Red Rangers (a dual purpose bird) and they added a rare breed chick. It was easy to spot the rare breed as there was only one black one in with all the other yellow chicks.

Here they are in their mailing box. As soon as I opened the lid, their little heads popped up and they wanted to get out.  Not bad for having hatched 48 hours earlier.

After dipping each one's beak in the water until they drank, they were raring to go in the hen house!
