16 baby chickens!

 

Early this morning mom got a phone call from the post office, telling us the chicks have arrived and were ready to be picked up! So she and dad drove right over and got the box! All sixteen of them made it safely and they were cheeping so loudly. 
We immediately put them in their temporary house and they got warmed up and began to eat and drink. We got fifteen female Rhode Island Reds and one rooster, though we are not sure on the type yet. 

They are sooooo tiny and adorable! They fit in your hand, and are so warm and soft. 
And of course we cant forget about the ducks! Mrs.Wimpy dimple, Flippy Floppy and Wobbles are getting so big! They are already sticking there heads out of there house, but they haven't started quacking yet!

Also, in case you were wondering, we have came up with a few chicken names but not all of them yet. So far we are sure the roosters name will be Chicken- Licken. And we have come up with a few more ideas, but none of them stuck because its so hard  to tell them apart! 

Thanks for reading!

Easter

On Easter we had a few of our friends over for dinner and an egg hunt. Since our yards are so big the parents hid 100 eggs for the kids and us kids hid about 50 for the parents beer hunt. We had a few golden eggs with prize baskets and a super big egg with a mystery surprise (5 cans of silly string).  And of course we hid them as hard as we could with the only rule of no burying them. Though im sure theres some more still out there, we keep finding them.😅 Happy Easter!

Around the farm

Not to much has happened this month, we have mainly just been getting ready for the winter ahead.  There was a pig running around our backyard a few days ago. We don't know how it got there or who's it was, it was just running around. We tried to get it into the pig pens, but it ran away. It was so cute and tiny! The ducks and chicken are all good, all the chicken are now laying. We get around 6-7 eggs every day! Scotty grew a full beard and wanted to show everyone.  It's almost Thanksgiving! Dose anyone have any plans?  Thanks for reading!
