Welcome to BackYard Chickens! Thanks for joining!
Beautiful chicks! They look very healthy.
Funny comment, but I love your fence!Do you happen to know what brand it is, or if it's custom? Either way, very nice! Your chicks will love that yard, even if they only have a portion of it.
Yay! What little cuties!View attachment 1733042 View attachment 1733039
