All of the chicks arrived this morning. We raise one batch of meat birds each year. This year, we’re doing 100. We keep half for ourselves, and we sell the rest.
We also got 25 pullets for egg laying. The egg breeds we’re trying this year are Russian Orloff, Dorking, Ancona, and Welsummer. We also got some Golden Campines, since we’ve had them before and liked them. I hope the chicken sexers did an accurate job – I hate having to get rid of roosters.
All of the chicks arrived alive and well, and so far, they’re doing great.
