New Baby Chicks!

Got a few new baby chicks today in the mail from the hatchery. They're adorable. We ordered two Golden Laced Wyandottes which should grow to be about 6/5 pounds and two Light Brahmas which will end up being our biggest girls at 9.5 pounds each! Both are known to be quiet, calm, and docile; however the Light Brahmas are well known for being good pet chickens due to their friendliness (gentle giants). They are also well known for the good, steady winter egg production.

Napping Wyandotte - Full belly, warmth and a nice nap is such a welcome treat after a two-day shipping process.
