We have CHICKS!!!!

So for the past few weeks there has been a man, we will call him Tom because that's his name, who has been building a chicken coop in the old horse barn.


I do not know much about chickens, except I like to eat them....shhh...I am whispering because I don't want them to hear....see they aren't too far from my house. From what I hear, they announce that when they are laying an egg...so this should be interesting...look for future posts on that.

But here are some pics of the hens that we will be getting eggs from ...

This is their little 2x2x2 where they will be taking care of business!! Shh, don't tell anyone, they are ladies ya know

Here are my girls helping out our dear friend get the coop ready ....

Did I mention that our dear friend also brought home 3 day old chicks, that will one day replace the laying hens we have now....apparently they are only deemed worthy for a short amount of time....shame...out with the old and in with the new youngins'

Just after this pic my princess was initiated into the "pooped on" club. A mad dash she made to the house to wash her hands....laughing all the way but not singing Jingle Bells...

They are super cute

This can only mean that there are going to be hilarious future posts on Chickens, egg collecting, rounding them up, etc...
Stay Tuned....I will find out how to use this for homeschooling some how!!!
