I had mine delivered by Cackle Hatchery. Shipped wed. the 7th. and received fri. the 9th. My very first flock of G.L. Wyandotte. My first flock of any thing !! I was very pleased with them. Ordered 2 cockerels, and 4 pullets. They were very active, water and food, also no real signs of up set...They just wanted to get out of that box.
If they aren't picking on her, I see no reason to move her!
Where are you located? A lot of time people are willing to help children get started with 4-H projects by not charging an arm and a leg for chicks.My daughter (11yr) and I are new to chickens and are getting some GLW. We are hoping to get some sort of standard. In the next few years she is going to want to show some in the fair for 4-H. Also, is it possible for us to get a good flock and not spend a fortune getting it started? I realize that people work hard for their lines but starting out it seemed like a lot to spend over $150 for a few birds that might not make it to begin with (because we are so new to all of this).
