[Alice in Wonderland]

Thanks, nw_arizona_granny. I'm in north-central Florida.

Oh, Glenn won't be needing any of my veggies . . . he has an established garden twice as big as mine, and a cow for beef.

But I just picked up these biddies and have more due to arrive via mail-order on 3/18. I should have an abundance of eggs and I'll be more than happy to share them with him.

I sent Glenn a link to this thread . . . maybe he'll post here . . . he is a wealth of information on just about any topic. More times than I'd like to admit I've turned to him when I've had a problem I couldn't resolve.

Good looking chicks, they look healthy and strong.

Thank you for inviting Glen to the thread, we would love to have him and it will give us another with knowledge.

Folks are asking for answers and if it were not for DelaWhere and the others, we would be short of answers.

You are sure on the right track.

The next 22 weeks will seem like an eternity till they start laying. My Buff Orpingtons just started laying back in January, but it now seems like yesterday that they were that size - and we are now getting eggs galore...

Oh, and I forgot to welcome you to the thread... Hope we hear lots more from you.
