That's right, I picked up three hot chicks at the post office today. Before you get the wrong idea, these were my day old baby chickens I ordered from My Pet Chicken. I got the phone call around 10:45 this morning, and drove to the post office shortly thereafter. I waited patiently while they went to retrieve my package, and I was handed the box to the left. The vigorous peeping emitting from my box got some curious stares! I hurriedly took them to the car so I could get them home and out of the box ASAP! After a short drive home I was able to open up the box and take out the cute little chicks. All of them seemed to be fine, and I placed them in their toasty container with food and water.
They seemed a little scared and skittish at first, but they soon began exploring. The yellow one likes to get INTO the food container. She barely fits now, so I have a feeling I'll be rescuing her from a half in/half out posture very shortly! Luckily the container slides apart easily into two pieces.
They are very amusing to watch, and their peeps are actually quite nice and soothing!
