We got 9 baby chicks
I love it! I've wanted to have them for a long time now. I decided to stop waiting 'til "we sell our house." It seems that i've been living that way for long enough! (i guess i'll get to wallpapering my powder bath too!) I think it's funny to watch people's responses and reactions to the fact that I actually wanted them and it wasn't the kids begging for ANOTHER animal. After all who wouldn't want fresh eggs whenever you want them? I know you'll be knockin soon! Well, actually in September.
We, the whole fam damily including Moose, have but in blood, sweat & tears in the process of building our girls a coop! Much thanks to my very handsome and highly skilled hubby for the time and effort expended on my behalf. We had alot of fun working on it together! Even though it turned out nothing like the cute picture I got off the internet! Marriage & projects are full of compromise, that is if you want anything to get done!
Ryan & his girl "Sherlette"
Wishing I had kept the name that the breeder gave him! Rooster.
Hard work and determination at it's best! Note to self...stop forrowing the brow. You are going to pay for it when you need Botox and fillers in the near future! 
Thats what HE gets!!!! Our little joke, but seriously. Maybe he should have considered letting me have another kid! Look what I got him into now!
3 of the cutest & best helpers! They are having as much fun with the girls as I am. Each child has their own chick plus more for all the extra love(CHORES & LIFE LESSONS) a kid needs!
Brooke, Sherlette, and Gussie 1 week old
Liv & Julia a Welsummer. She will lay "chocolate" colored eggs!
Poor things. Subject to 3 boys & all the torture
The Brooder "home sweet home"
I am so glad that Moose thinks these are just friends to play with and not his next meal!

How is the chick that Millie tried to eat? That is so cool that you guys have chickens! Have an AWSOME summer and see you soon.
Love Tiffy
How fun! Your coop looks awesome! I felt like it took FOREVER for our chicks to lay! But they are laying now. Some days we go out and get tomatoes, zucchini, basil (finally), and eggs. I feel like I live in a little cottage...isn't life so sweet. But the chickens wander the eat my tomatoes now, don't like that! :)
Awesome! I'll be watching to see how it works! I'd love to do that but I'm too afraid. Keep giving reports?
I think that is great that you have chicks. Our neighbor has chickens, (well did) the coyotes ate them, and they are blaming the other neighbor's dog, and suing them for the lost chickens. Keep the chicks penned:D
