We gave a big, greatly missed, loving "Welcome Back!" to the chicken life on April 14, 2017. We started out with 5 little babies - and quickly grew to 15! Within two weeks!
Yes, I know - chicken math!
But! Hear me out here... :) we're only keeping the hens (maybe one rooster). So, I figure I will take a pretty good hit in numbers once everyone is old enough that we definitely know who is what. So, I figure it's really not that bad, haha!
We currently have our first 5 that are now 3 weeks old, and the last 10 that are a week old. We are in the process of building the coop and run. We are planning ahead (because my husband knows me, bless his soul) to build everything large enough for 25 hens. (That way he gets to put in a limit, and I still feel like I have room to grow lol). Once we really get going on more than just a plan (in the next day or two) I'll be posting pictures of that process as well.
Of course, I have up separate albums for all of our girls and boys - and I update them weekly with new pictures of everyone. They really are already some spoiled little babies!
