Chicks!

Some people get letters from friends or family in the mail, some get bills and junk mail. Today, we got something very out of the ordinary-21 somethings! Twenty-one chicks came in a box in our mail today. They will be the start of our new poultry flock. We have always loved having chickens-they are easy to take care of and they also provide great-tasting fresh eggs. These peeps may not lay any eggs for a while yet, but we are already enjoying them just the same! They are so fluffy and cute! Here are some pictures you might enjoy.
