You can also order prekilled/frozen for very cheaply, and then you dont have o worry about killing them. If your guy likes them, that may be a better option.
At the bird of prey center where i work we generally dont keep them frozen for more than 6months; though we have a very fast rate of turn around hahahaha

That's cool for you, but not really going to help the OP if he's already ordered a batch. Most places have a sizable minimum order for live chicks.

Well I was responding to you, and the problem of rapidly growing chicks. I was trying to say that if you want to buy live and have some place near by, just buy them every week or 2. They always have a fresh supply of chics and you don't have to worry about them getting too big.
