The post office called today......yes, on a sunday!  My chicks were in. So I brought them home. There is 5 maybe 6 different breeds. Have them set up in the basement under a heat lamp for now. They all made it alive, 26 of them. Shelby has been going nuts ever since they arrived. Maybe when they get big enough, I will see how Shelbys hearding skills are as a Border Collie. Now the work starts. They ought to start laying in november or december. We will have white, brown, and tinted eggs to sell.  |

Thanks guys. They are all still alive and doing well. Looks like there may be 7 or 8 different breeds now. The closer I look at them I can see the differences. Just not quite shure about one of them. Time will tell. Now I just have to get my coop built so its ready for them when its time to go outside. |

That's cool Scott! My Border Collie is the world's laziest, he just wants his belly scratched :D though he used to herd the kids in the yard when we first got him. Cheers, Griff |

Very cool Scott. My wife wants us to move a little more out into the country, and if we do, she wants chickens! I'll have to remember that I can go to you for advice!! |

That is so awesome Scott. When I was young my family raised chickens. Our first was from my sister hatching them in 5th grade. It was a mean old rooster but we added to the flock and had fresh eggs every day. Enjoy and good luck with the business. |
