I have ordered my chicks! They will arrive the week of March 8.
I'm getting an Ameraucana (blue eggs), an Easter Egger (blue-green eggs), a Maran (dark brown eggs), a Buff Orpington (light brown eggs), an Olive Egger (green eggs), and either an Austra White (white eggs) or a Wyandotte (cream to brown eggs), depending on which is available.
I will name them after Malory Towers girls, from Enid Blyton's girls' boarding school series. Did you know there's a delightful, mostly faithful TV version with a much more diverse cast? You can watch it here or on BBC. It was very inspirational.
I had no idea this existed until I saw this lovely vid of it!
You can now look forward to the exploits of my feathered Darrell, Mary-Lou, and other chicks.

Maybe they can do lacrosse with cherry tomatoes.

(Ok, if I were doing chicks, I might go with Chalet School, but then you've got to decide on time periods, and that's a lot of choices.)

And omg, Malory Towers! You're the first American I know who's encountered them. (No, brain, you don't need to reread, Enid Blyton WILL disappoint you)
