Sam's first 5K

Sam ran her first 5K this weekend. Great time for her! We are so proud!!!!

Moving on out!

The chicks are moving out into the yard during the day now. The run is temporary and they can not be left alone but they are digging the yard (literally!) Still waiting on a permit from the county and a completed coop by my husband....... Sammy likes sitting out in the run with the girls and keeping them company. Over the weekend she was digging up worms for them and pointing out bugs they should go for. Today she just sat in a lawn chair while Teggun perched on her shoulder. Teggun is preferring hanging out with Sammy in a lawn chair to scratching around and hanging with the other peeps. Although Sammy likes Teggun we are hoping this changes soon and she realizes she is a chicken.

Maisie's Post

Here is a pictorial post by Maisie - a few self portraits and a few visitors......

4 WEEKS

WEEK 4 AND GROWING FAST

Still in the living room. Nights are cold - coop not built yet. Maisie is not too fond of the chickens. This as close as we can get her to holding them. Looks like Sam is going to be in charge of them.

Best Mother's Day Ever!

What a great Mother's Day I had. Yard work all day and Lou Malnotti's for dinner. It really doesn't get any better than this! Thank you John, Ben, Sam, and Maisie!!!!!










My family helped me clean the yard today with no grumbling. It looks awesome, for those of you who haven't seen the house yet now you know why I need to get on putting up some window treatments....

That Crazy Chicken Girl

Sammy Z - you know that kid down the street with the chickens

Week Three cont.....

The chicks are growing like mad! The have about tripled in size (which makes sense since it is week three). They are roosting on perches, testing their wings, and cheeping away most every minute with ten minute nap breaks.
