New Additions :-)




These are the new babies we got today.... 6-  2 week old pullets. They are Easter Eggers- so in other words they are mutt chicks. :-)
Here is some more info, as this is the first time we have had EE's, we are going to be learning about them and their personality.

I can't wait to see how these girls feather out. Right now, you put your hand in, as you can see hubby doing and they will jump right up on your finger. They are gonna hang out in the house, nice and cozy for a few weeks and then start going on the porch in the dog crate/chicken crate, then to the brooder box we have and finally into the pen with the girls :-D

According to what we've read, they start laying somewhere around 4 months, so we might see some eggs from them this year(which would be awesome to see which colors) or if it gets cooler, maybe not until next year. I'm hoping for this year!
