Happy Valentines day to me! (and my daughter) On Feb. 15th we brought home six new baby chicks! Meet Nugget, Crispy, Omelet, Sheldon, Leonard, and Penny! We went out wanting to get two or three, but much to my husbands dismay, there was a six chick minimum, and so here we are! There are five mixed pullets, (two white and three red) and one road island red (gender unknown). I grew up with road island reds, even though we lived in town, we had a huge yard. They probably weren't very legal, and they were the bane of our next door neighbors existence but they sure were fun! :) So I blame my parents for my love of farm animals. ;) They are really growing fast! they have a bunch of feathers and are already starting to fly. I need to post a new pic of all their new feathers. They are in kind of an ugly stage right now with only half their feathers, but I know they will look better soon, as they are growing so fast you can practically see it right before your eyes!
