I work with youth so I'm familiar with the human juvenile gangly phase . Will do on the pics!

We just drove to Whitmore Farm (whitmorefarm.com) in western Maryland and picked up our first flock of chickens! We ordered eight, but the owner was nice and gave us an extra so we can hope to get enough hens. It was a great trip and our babies are doing well in the brooder. Now I just need to...
