My new found hobby

 I got the baby chicks on the 9th of March....and took pictures. I am writing this so I can look back in the blog and  remember the date. So little here........

One week and two days later......March 18th

My plans are to have my own eggs and fryers...when these little fellows 
raise me some more chicks. We use to raise our own when I was a kid
hope to do it again.

when we lived in Oregon, we had Aracuna hens. the kids had so much fun watching them grow from itsy-bitsy chicks to hens. They laid pastel colored eggs, pink/biege, blue, green.

Fresh eggs taste sooo much better than market eggs. You are so lucky to have them. =)

How wonderful. We always had chickens and my mom still does.... Can't stand a store bought egg!

Wow! That'll be great to have your own little chicken farm! Fresh eggs are the best!

We have a Tractor Supply store around the corner and last year they were selling chicks around Easter time. So many of my neighbors bought them as "pets" for their kids. The good news is, I know where to go when I need to borrow an egg. LOL!

O, Trish....I just wish we lived in the country....I would have some chickens, too.
I remember when my mother ordered the little chicks THRU THE MAIL. It was sooo fun to get that box of tiny chicks and they would be peeping their little heads off. :))
