New Chicks Arrived...Very Early in the Morning!

We have decided to drastically increase our flock size for a couple reasons. First we would like to sell some eggs so others can enjoy them farm fresh and second it would be nice to have a few extra chickens around to eat - just in case. These little guys hatched yesterday.

We got 30 Plymouth Rocks (25 Hens 5 Roosters) and 7 Partridge Rocks (5 Hens and 2 Roosters)  I got the phone call from the post office that they had arrived at 4am. Picked them up and had them happy and warm in their brooder by 5 am.
