Dixie Chicks

[Amberjem]

I do have a portable chicken tractor that hubby built me.. might just be perfect for some young ones...

thats what I am using my tractor for works well... I have the older chicks in it atm gettting a lil sunshine they still inside but starting to put them out during day when it's nice cuz they suddenly got most of their feathers three lil buff orpingtons

ooooooooooh!


I had one itsy chick this morning, and after noon I had , now I have 4... lots of pips, but not all of the eggs have pipped.

COME ON! I pre-sold these eggs!!!!! (first time ever doing it on an order basis) it better work out I tell you!!!!

I put in way more than I needed for the pre-orders, think that I could sell extras... or give them away as freebies to the people who had bought some... so it SHOULD work out OK... but we all know how it is with live stock!

(except for the olive eggers, I did NOT have extra eggs of those.. but I told the people that wanted them, that I was gonna be short)

Growing up I always heard "There is many a slip, between the cup and the lip"...

So I just REALLY want to
1. see them all hatched
2. make sure they all look healthy
3. and then relax!

But it looks like, that time will not happen until tomorrow....

I can't believe how well my carrots and radishes are doing for far! If it wasn't so dark outside I'd get pics. I'm trying some new verities of carrot (red core and tendersweet) and I'm hoping they do better than past attempts.
