Thank you - they are my first babies of my first homers.

Thank you - they are my first babies of my first homers.

And now they are ready to venture out into the big wide world? That must be so exciting!

Yes, a couple of weeks and they will be my first releases.

Continued to integrate the now 3 weeks old chicks today, will try to post pictures tomorrow, as while I was putting them all back into their respective coops, one the blue babies decided to hide behind my Meyer lemon tree. I lunged for the chick and rammed a small tree branch into my left eye. DD placed a gauze bandage over it so it will stay closed and taped it in place. DH will look at it when he gets home. But I can't see very well with one eye, so pictures will have to wait. It hurts like an SOB, but I am sure it will be okay with a little rest. Just my luck. Did @Cyprus ever get her eggs?? She needs to be part of the hatching gang!!
