Chicks by mail. Who woulda thunk it?
I'll try to get some better pics tomorrow, they had a long journey and I didn't want to stress them too much today. We have a bigger box on the way tomorrow, one advantage of having a roommate that does HVAC, but this is just fine for today.
For those who are interested in these things, the breed is a Heritage breed, the Buckeye, which was developed in Ohio. Not all that far away and the climate is similar so they ought to do very well here.
Here's some really good pictures of the breed:
