We received our six Australorp chicks in the mail, and they have all been healthy. They are getting big fast! There are supposed to be 5 hens and one rooster, but we shall see!

Out of 12 eggs, 2 never developed, 2 did not finish developing, 2 needed manual help to finish hatching, and the other 6 all hatched on their own. So we currently have 8 happy (but skittish) and healthy guinea fowl chicks.

Millie and Lottie are warming up to us more every day. They have been sick, but they seem to be getting better. They are still a bit underweight, but they love the alfalfa hay.
