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!

Random projects!

I don't have any pictures to post right now, so I'll just tell you about some random projects we are doing!  Me and Scotty are thinking of names to name our chickens. He's thinking about some like "Chickn Licken Jr", " Drumstick" and " Wobbles". I really don't know what to name mine, but I'm thinking!  Our house is beautiful but it needs a bit of updating. We are replacing the toilets, sink spigot and spouts, painting the cabinets and replacing the handles, fixing lights and a ton more. It's all really fun work! I personally are getting used to windows with no screens. A lot of the bugs that fly inside don't bug me at all, I just shoo them into my brother's room 🤣 But it really isn't pleasant when your brother shoos the hugest moth in the world into your room and it starts to fly in your face as your trying to go to bed. But we got that situated and the moths went back outside.  Dad has been working hard in his barn and...

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!

The pigs

Yesterday we picked up 2 piglets from a farm a few hours away, brought them home, and put them into the training pen.  At first they were a little scared, but it only took them about ten minutes to get used to it and Scotty started feeding them out of his hand. They are friendly, but they do bite occasionally.  Tomorrow were getting our last one, but that one is going to be more of a pet. These two... 🥓.
