Chicken Ranch

We descended on IFA last Friday afternoon.
There was LOTS of squealing.......by one little girl :)

Peek -a- boo !!!

We ended up with 9 at IFA, and then Tagg chose 3 at Tractor Supply in Morgan.  

This is Brownie - Payson's chick

Bright isn't hold hers here in this pic.
Her's is named BlackOUT (and he's the darkest one in the bunch)

I think Thatcher named his Jim (I think) and I can't remember Tagg's at all.  

Oh boy, it's always an exciting time.  Zac built us this little chicken coop many many years ago, and every spring we get new babies, and use it as a "nursery" of sorts, since we built the bigger one.  They stay here until they get big enough to fend for themselves in the big coop.  

They all seem  to be doing really well.  No Pasty Butt.
Yes, it's a thing..........  Join the Backyard Chicken Club on FB, you can learn alot !!


***UPDATE.........that $#%&* dog busted through the metal screen net (see above, just below Thatcher) and decided to PLAY/EAT/MAUL  FOUR, yes FOUR of the little chicks............. we are down to 8 :(

Don't tell Bright, but Blackout was one of the casualties.  We need to get back to IFA and buy a TWIN before she comes up again !!
