Just spent a small part of the afternoon cleaning an old dog igloo to use as a brooder once the chicks start realizing they have wings! They played in the garden right next to me and took nice little naps while I was working.

What a pretty yard you have! Is that large rock structure a fountain/waterfall?
 
Congrats! They're precious! Enjoy those new babies.
I definitely will!

Thank you lots. And yes it’s a fountain with a little gold fish pond. In need of a cleaning and some new plants which will hopefully be done before August ends. So much to do so little time :rolleyes:
 
Sweet little Chip decided she loved the blanket I was sitting on. She attempted to dust bathe on it and then decided to stretch out and take a nice nap.

I try and sit on a blanket while I’m outside because I get ate up by mosquitos and chiggers so bad :hitDoes anyone have any preventatives that don’t include bug sprays?

Spent this evening watering and pruning the raised beds while the chicks ate insects and learned how to dust bathe! It’s super hot here in central Oklahoma, and they were drinking water droplets off of tomato and hot pepper leaves.
I carry them to and from the garden in a Home Depot bucket!
I began my first ever compost pile today as well. Baby steps.
