The chickens are here!

     So those of you that know me may know that for a couple of years now I have wanted chickens. My sweetie finally caved and as a combination birthday anniversary gift, we welcomed three new littles into our household last week.

     We have had the girls for a week now and they have been a tremendous
 amount of fun. We are using their coop as a brooder box in the downstairs.   We, of course, did not attach the roof or run to it and the nesting boxes are closed off for now.                                                                                 

   Dixie and Lucie were two weeks old and little Josie a week, but she seems to be holding her own.  This week Lucie and Dixie have been getting tail feathers and Josie is losing some of her fuzz.  Stay tuned for my new distraction from life's craziness!
