These Babies are really cute!!
The kids were so excited to get them! We've been talking
about getting chickens for over a year now and finally did it!
We've been hard at work getting their new home ready for
over a month now and hubby just finished the electric yesterday!
Here's their new home!
(I should have gotten a picture of the whole coop we built...
well maybe another day!!!)

We ended up with 23 chicks
11 Rhode Island Reds-- these are red
6 Silver and Gold laced Wyandottes-- these are black
6 Isa Browns -- these are blonde colored
It's a really pretty mix of colors!!
Our research says these are all very
easygoing and great egg layers
We shall see!!!
Now if only we didn't have
to wait 5 months for eggs!!!

Awww . . . they're cute!
Sweet! Did you get females or mix? Hopefully you don't get many roosters or you get some rooster stew! My dad got "all females" last year, and ended up with 2 roos. You will be able to tell within a few weeks, they have more of a comb on them and they will look different. We love our chickies, and the eggs... yes. You will NEVER be able to do store bought again...
I can relate to waiting, my son and I planted our seeds for the garden in doors. We are just waiting to see them germinate!
Awww They are to cute! I have 4 chicks right now that are about 4 weeks old, and will be getting 5 more baby chicks from a friend in 4 weeks. They are so fun to raise, and I can't wait for the fresh eggs. I nominated you for a Kreativ Blogger Award, so stop by my site to check it out if you get a chance. Thanks!!
