We have chicks!

 We have been pretty busy around here lately. All the snow has melted in our yard and in our neighborhood. The tulips and lilies are popping through the ground, and despite the rain I have already planted my peas.
Spring is creeping in... slowly but surely... and we welcome it with open arms! A couple weeks ago, we got seven baby chicks... all egg laying hens (eventually of coarse). They are so cute! We have 5 different breeds of chicks, so our chickens will be all different sizes and colors. Two of them will even lay blue and green eggs! Brandon is building them a coop in the back yard but until then, they live in the garage under a warming lamp.
