[OkChickens]

In my 4x10 brooder I have 9 Black Indian Runners, 15, Welsummers, and 10 Araucanas all around a week old. In my grow out pen in my barn I have 27 Delawares, 18 Welsummers, and 5 Araucanas all between 6-8 weeks old. I have in a seprate room 7 Sweetgrass Turkey poults that are 6 weeks old! They eat a lot of feed. About 50lbs a week between these.

to all the new eggs! Chicks are a wonderful thing!

that would b a little morbid!!

It's actually a trailer my Dad built (he passed away 2 yrs ago) to hook up to tractor to haul wood in to the house. It has been a wonderful brooder for my 29 peeps til they get their feathers in to b able to go out to the big girl coop! I'm sure my Dad is iin Heaven wathing me and shaking his head and rolling his eyes that his trailer is being used to hold chickens! And that we converted the smokehouse he built for the chicken coop!

Love u Dad!

We have been looking forward to getting our chicken coop up and running! Just got our coop, need to paint it still and put shingles on the roof, but it's coming along....
Got our chicks today at the local feed store. I really wanted an Araucana because of their beautiful eggs, but it wasn't meant to be. Here's what we got:
2 White Rocks; 3 Barred Rocks; 3 Buff Orpingtons. My daughters have named them Snowball, Sparkles, Rosa, Tiffany, Stephanie, Creampuff, Rose, and Stripey.........they will be loved for sure!!
Looking forward to chillin' with my peeps in the future!!
