:: Just Hatched


The day our family has been eagerly awaiting came this weekend.  I got a phone call from our local feed store Sunday afternoon, telling us our 35 baby chicks had just arrived.  We got a mixture of layers: 20 Black Star, and 15 Barred Rock.

 
 
 






There is nothing in the world like the downy softness of a baby chick.  I wish you could hold them, too.

    1. They absolutely loved holding them when they were chicks. Now they are getting so big!
