    I have 13 new chicks :) My mom had ordered 2 Homesteader's Delight from McMurray. She wasn't that interested in having more chicks but wanted the goslings. I kept 13 of the 20 chicks and Mom kept the 4 turkeys, ducklings, goslings, and 7 chicks. In my chicks I have 2 Cochins, a black jersey...

    How about something completely different?

    Bacon. Because we have yet to raise our own pigs and I don't have a smoke house. And when we run out if bacon it really is the end of the world. And coffee. After that, mail order chicks ...yea I would miss that.
