Remember these little guys? Or gals I should say. These are my chickies 6 week ago. They had lots of room to run, scratch and play.Here they are now, a month later. They are growing so fast. They have no room anymore in that tote. I am anxiously waiting for the weather to warm back up so that I can move them outside with the other hens.
Their soft black fluff has turned into pretty white and black feathers. Their combs are starting to develop as well.

I have had to put chicken wire on top of the bin to make sure they stay in. I was finding them perching on the top of the tote a few times and roaming around the garage. I think they are anxious to move out to their new home as well.

Really wish I could get my stuff together and have some chickens!! The only problem is I only think I could use their eggs....I'd be naming them ad never be able to kill them. :(

I've moved my 7 week old chicks out to the barn to stay warm until they can head outside. Silly weather... I'd like to see some global warming :)
ReplyDeleteSo cool! It is cold too cold outside for me too, right now!
