Look At The Size of These Chicks!

Okay. It is so time to get these cute little chickens out to their own place. They are really growing fast! The kids still really enjoy holding them and playing with them. It is fun to watch them. One of the fun things about having them in the house is the constant peeping or chirping or whatever it is. I kind of like the happiness of the sound. They sure create a lot of dust though. They are sort of dumb. They always kick pine shavings into their water and tip their food over. How do they think they are going to eat and drink if their food is gone and the wood shavings have soaked up all their water. I guess chickens do naturally pick at the ground to eat, so at least they won't starve. Who knew my kids best friends would be chickens? Okay-so they do have human friends too, but they have lots of fun with the poultry too.
