Our friendly mailman delivered twenty eight darling chicks and three bratty turkeys to our farm last Thursday. Everyday they seem to double in size and produce more feathers. It is delightful to watch them test their wings and hop around their little enclosure.
Be warned, if you are naive and allow the hatchery the select your mixture of chicks, you might want to inquire about the price before the chicks arrive. $108.00? Seems a little high in my book. The owner of the hatchery is rumored to say " you'll really like these chicks!" I feel like there was most likely a wink attached to this statement but we will never know.
And in case your wondering what kind of chicks these are, I have absolutely no idea. A mixed batch of egg laying chickens is how Bryan ordered these little guys.
