We are just having so much fun with our chicks. We finally took them outside to play!

A Haiku
Babies hatched this week
Two Starling nests in my roof
Cheeping everywhere
There are two separate sets of starling families that have built nests in the eaves of my house and their babies hatched this week. Add to that the sounds from my chicks and there is muchly bird noises.
It is sort of annoying.
Unfortunately, I am not the type to shoot animals.
It’s time to post about my babies

Aren’t they adorable? The kids just love them.

Rosie loves them too. We took this picture a couple of days ago, but today I caught her sitting in the brooder with them.
Chicks are fun! And so far, really easy. We just got the four, two rhode island reds and two black australorps. They all should be layers of brown eggs. That is if one isn’t a rooster… We can’t keep a rooster where we live, and I don’t know what we’ll do if one ends up a boy (we have 90% odds of all females). I told Charming, I couldn’t eat one of my own chickens. They are my babies!
