Baby Chicks are hard to raise.

We are back down to 7 chicks.  Orange, the Orpington passed Thursday afternoon.   I am bummed, and have no idea why we have lost 3?  That seems like a lot.  It's funny, but when I ordered my chicks I was so sure about which breeds I wanted, I researched them, and the number I wanted.  Now I am happy with how ever many survive.  When I went to pick up the chicks I was upset because they gave me a speckled sussex instead of a Wyandotte.  Now, Popcorn is my favorite chick!  She looks like a little hawk, and her feathers are so pretty!
