My 25 foster chicks, at the post office. Peeping loudly, "Wondering where's the food? Where the heat? and the water?"
The shipping label. Babies were shipped on Sat., May 16 via USPS Priority Mail. Post office called at 7:37am. Hillery & I picked them up this morning around 8am.
15 mins later, Hillery & I arrived in the warm greenhouse; ready for dip of (organic) sugar & (Hawaiian filtered) water. Jim & Ruthie juices the wheat grass
That's me with a baby cochin.
