New Baby Chicks Have Arrived!

March 12, 2015

It's gotten to be that time again when I need to replenish my backyard flock...so 15 new babies have arrived!  Six or seven of them will stay with me, the rest will have another home after I've raised them up a bit and taught them some manners. Here are some portraits at 3 days old. As always, too cute.
