It’s official, we’ve incorporated chickens into our backyard farm. Three Rhode Island Reds and three Ameraucana’s.
They’ll be two weeks old on Wednesday and will be living in a box in the basement for the next couple weeks. In the meantime, we’ll have to figure out where the coop is going. We’re hoping to be eating fresh omelets in about six months.
The garden is also coming in nicely. We doubled the size this year and are up to about 400 sq. ft. We’ve got cucumbers, beans, potatoes, onions (red), garlic, tomatoes, peppers, peas and carrots.

Oh my gosh, oh my gosh! I can’t wait to see the chicks!!!
I will definitely bring Ryan over to help work on the coop. He needs to know how to build one for my future petting zoo. 🙂
Do they have names yet??

No names yet. We can’t really tell them apart.
