The girls

Meet the newest little ladies in our family - Michelle, Chickaletta, Gloria, Mrs. Consuela, Buffy, Puffy, and Christie!  They're about a week and a half old right now, and growing fast!  We got them when they were 3 days old.  I will be happy when the smelly little things can regulate their temperatures a little better, and go out to their (yet unconstructed) coop, Although, it is convenient and fun to have them in the basement for now.  I've been reading up every chance I get, as neither of us have ever had chickens before.  So far it's been a fun little adventure.  I have always wanted chickens, I can't wait for farm fresh eggs!
