The Chicks Have Arrived!

There is always a lot of excitement in our house when the box of chicks comes through the front door. Little ones run to be the first one to hold the baby chicks, and they each enjoy holding them before they are put out in their temporary home. Spring has arrived and the work will be increasing on the farm. The work is fun and rewarding and we love getting outside more often. Aiden and the little ones helped to get the chicks’ room cozy and warm with heat lamps, clean wood chips, feed, and clean water. Each chick is dipped in the water to teach them where to drink, and they are monitored several times throughout the first day. You can watch a quick 30 second video that Aiden created this morning here. Since all of our chickens got reserved the first day we announced them, we have ordered another large amount for the fall. Stay tuned! Do you love chicken?
