We've got ....

Chookies at long last. 13 week old Hyline hens ... aren't they cute! They are still settling in and will adjust quicker when Jessie learns to leave them alone! Can't wait for them to start laying eggies! I have 6 in the Chook Tractor at the moment but 3 are for Julie.

Oh come join the chooky crafters hey Chelle! We have not long had 9chookies giving 7-9 eggs aay and just great for all those summer salads:) Enjoy! MUst tell you we put up small electric fence or our dog to buzz up against for a week and soon he learnt, not to run flat out in to the fence to scare the chooks:)

Yum, fresh eggs!

Sure hope Jessie leaves the chicks alone. A neighbor's dog got in Kelly's henhouse this past summer and killed a couple of their chicks.
