Starting from Scratch

More baby chicks!

We had our second shipment of chicks (40) come in this morning.  All survived the trip and are very chipper and excited.  They are all running around and look very busy.  They are eating and drinking a lot too.  I'm cautiously optimistic that none will die, hoorah!  I'm going to try to post some pictures of them later, they are so cute!  I'm thinking chickens are one of my favorite animals.

We got electric poultry netting up over the weekend.  The chickens are still free range, but we can keep them more contained now.  Which means, we find all of the eggs they lay.  We even got a tiny egg from our bantam hen.  She used to never lay in the nesting boxes, and I never was able to find her stash.

More later...

Yay! I'm so happy for you! I'm waiting for baby chicks to arrive at our near by feed store. We can't have any, since we're in the city, but I'm going to take Samuel to see them.
