Hatchings


This past week as we were in the middle of renovating Scott and Janie's bedroom, we had a special delivery of 52 little chicks. Max and Lucy were so excited to go down to the coop with Papa, Mom and Dad and introduce all the little chicks into their new home. Max was a little nervous at first and sat back to watch while his sister got right in there and enjoyed petting each little chick. Since then, we have made multiple trips a day to visit our chicks, make sure they have food, and for Lucy to pick them up and move them around. She has introduced them to every visitor that has stopped by and is always looking for another excuse to go down and visit her friends. We all indulge her because we know their time as chicks will be pretty short lived, and I'm sure once they're bigger the novelty will wear off. She already told me last night that once the chicks grow, she wants to get baby rabbits. And it begins.
