When we lived in OK we had bantams we raised from chicks. They arrived in such a box, peeping away and also driving that post office nuts. It was amazing to receive those somewhat anonymous little beings -- fuzzballs of various colors -- and see them turn into specific, entirely different things. (Our order was for mixed bantams, including arucanas, and we ended up with Cochins in several colors and a pretty little arucana hen that laid delicately blue eggs.)
