We picked up 27 brand new chickies last week, and boy are they cute! They grow super fast and are pretty frisky, but already they are super social and fun to be with.

I’ve never had chickens from the very start before, and it’s a bit scary at first I must admit. When they sleep they just pass right out and it looks like they’re dead! But if you look closely you can see them breathing, it’s like a living carpet of chickies laid out in the bin.

But so far so good: sticky bums are all cleaned up, temperature is perfect, cat isn’t interested at all (thank goodness!), food and water aplenty – all we need is to make more space for them as they grow, give them space to run, ’cause man that’s funny to watch!

Chicken TV, gotta love it!
