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!

Today we get pigs

After lunch today, we're driving a few hours to pick up the pigs. We're getting two Berkshire crosses today and one Kune-Kune on Sunday from a different place.  Dad has built the training pen behind the stove, you can see on the right there's the water and the far left is their house.  And, of course, Scotty named the two pigs,  Bop and Bonk 😂 Can anyone guess what those names are from? 

Chicken eggs

For some reason the colder weather seems to be making the chickens lay more eggs, we're getting about eight.  And today I actually managed to catch a guinea hen 😂 Everything is changing with the colder weather expected the pond since it overflowed with the past storm.  Thats all for today, thanks for reading!
