Chick Chick

We have a few new members to our family, 6 to be exact. Chickens! Yes, we caved and got chickens. We have been talking about it for some time but kept debating. We finally decided to do it, but thought we would get already grown chickens, but what fun is that? Much more fun to watch them grow from babies into big chickens. Right now they are living in our downstairs bathroom under a heating lamp (it has to be 95 degrees). They will stay like this for a few weeks and then we can put them in their coop outside (which Z has to finish soon!)

 

We are really excited about this for multiple reasons like the eggs! And the responsibility it will bring the boys (and Presley when she gets older), as this will be one of their "chores".

Aren't they so cute? :)

The boys picked out the black ones. Cohen named his "Chicken Tenders" and Caleb named his "Monkey Cheese" (aka Chuck E Cheese). The rest are nameless for now, there is talk from Cohen that one yellow one should be named Honey Mustard. That child cracks me up!
