pardon the red light, but this is a sweet picture. For those who don't know, i drove round trip 84 miles to pick up 10 Black Australorp pullets for my newly acquired Black Jersey Giant roo. I got there to find them offered straight run! So i came home with twenty chicks who, to me, didn't resemble BAs. So after some internet research i concluded i had picked up sex-links. The hatchery [Privett] would not give out any information since i didn't purchase directly from them. By the time i had opportunity to drive back and return them, Chuck was attached, and frankly it was uplifting to have the sounds of chicks in the house, so we kept them.
