We received an early Easter arrival yesterday! Chickens.....16 of them! Kelly has been talking about chickens, goats and cows for months(think he's going through some mid-life crisis or ful-filling some of his missed out childhood experiences!) I kept saying I am not a farmer's wife, buying my eggs at Kroger suits me just fine, but....needless to say my children are now the proud owners and caretakers of 16 very cute, but not for long, little chicks! They are in a large Rubbermaid container in our garage with a heat lamp. Jake and Hunter are lying on the rug next to them, chicksitting, I hope and not dreaming of nuggets! Kelly and the boys, with much assistance from Stephen, are going to built a coop in the next few weeks. This should be very interesting.......
I will post better pictures later!
