Garden and Chickens Feb-March

Since I am just now getting back to this, we will go back in time a ways....

We really wanted to get chickens last year but with moving in late May we had our hands full...Not that we don't now...but it seemed like the right time to get things going. Chris crafted a mini coop for these critters to grow in. They were housed in the far corner of our garage for what seemed like forever but was only about 5 weeks. We got them from Lee's Feed the week before Easter.The Ritz! Hahaha!
Growing already! The chick stage is really high maintenance. We tried to keep everything as clean as possible-bleaching their water bowl in between fill-ups (they can't seem to be potty trained, so they went everywhere...) I wore gloves whenever handling them to take prego-precautions.
Blue enjoying the future garden site...Stay tuned for what grows next!
