Hello everyone!
So I just learned that I have a chicken problem. We have our very first flock that we started yesterday. We were due to have 6 chicks total, but 2 were hatched earlier than the other four (different breeds). Because we were so excited we went and picked up the first 2. Although they are seriously mischevious, I am absolutely in love. (This is way better than TV, I may cancel the cable)We got a call from the woman who was hatching the chicks ( she is fantastic btw!) and told us they were ready....oh and by the way I have some leghorns that you may be interested in as well that hatched also. Soooooo instead of the 6 we originally planned on, we now have 8. I am super glad that we did, cause I know I would be kicking myself if I didn't get em. Our happy new flock consists of 2 silver laced wyandottes, 2 gold laced wyandottes, 2 delawares and 2 white leghorns. And believe it or not, the hubby to be didn't even blink when I mentioned the additional 2...he just said, well the coop and run will be plenty big enough for 8...or even more. I think we may need a meeting. If I can figure out how to post pics, I will do so sometime soon, but I am still very new to the site and have no idea what I am doing. Just wanted to share my excitement with you all!
