It's funny to post these pictures now, because these little chickies are all big with feathers now! But anyway, the week after we got back from our vacation we got our baby chicks! I grew up raising chickens and so ever since Josh and I got married (8 years ago) we've been wanting to get chickens, but have never had a place for them until now. The funny thing is that now its kind of a trend and lots of people, even here in the city have chickens. :) We've had a lot of fun with them so far and can't wait until they start laying eggs in the fall. We got 2 Cuckoo Marans (which lay a deep chocolate colored egg), 2 rainbow-egg layers (had these when I was a kid and the blue eggs are SO fun!), one silver-laced wyandotte, one barred rock, and one partridge rock. I just letting my kids having some of the same experiences that I got to have when I was a kid like raising baby chicks!
