Like so many of us who frequent the feed stores, I'm a sucker for chicks. Early in the season we made a deal to raise meat birds for our landlord on shares. He is paying for everything and we are doing the work, and with a tight budget and prices the way they are, we decided we couldn't pass it up. I also thought that it would help with the chick cravings. Except that I already had myself set on a few Cochins or feather footed Bantams. That's all. Just a few. But again, I was trying to be good and NOT give in to it and just be happy with the babies that will be at freezer camp in two months. But as usual, I justified and we now have banties. Our eldest brought home four but the cat leaned on the plug (as best I as I can figure) and unplugged the heat lamp so we now have two. And a broody hen sitting on nine eggs, of which half SHOULD be roos which will be freezer campers as well, leaving us with just the right amount of replacement hens...see how tidily I justified! Happy spring!
