Title: Chicks!
Post by: Mulberry1990 on February 13, 2011, 18:22

Finally convinced my mum, and today we ordered four chicks!! =D
We're getting them at two weeks old rather than a day old, as they have to travel quite a way!
They'll be hatching in two weeks and then two weeks for them to grow, then onto their new home with us!!! =D
We're getting a blackrock, speckeldy, bluebell and cream legbar!! CAN NOT WAIT!!!!!!!!

ooh lovely mix  :), but will they take them back if they turn out to be boys, I know the cream legbars can be sexed on hatching but can the others?

Apparently so =) I'm getting them from happy chicks and the woman said they can all be sexed from birth.
Now I just need to decide on names!
The options so far are...
Dior
Mary
Quant
Bobbi
Eve
Lauren
Apple

Opinions pleaseeee?!? =D
