Goodness, we had not even ever touched a real chicken!
But it turns out we were really going to like having chickens!
Since then we have had a couple different batches of these cuties.
Each time is so much fun and always results in super yummy eggs!
When they are this little they need some extra care.
Just verify you have everything good to go and can maintain the temperature well before your chicks should arrive/hatch!
So best to call your local post office and tell them you are expecting live chicks.
This way they will be on the look out for you.
Once one realizes where/what it is they will all follow.
Most are yellow, black, brown or a combination of those colors.
They will just get faster and faster and poop more and more!
And if you thought kids grow up fast baby chickens grow up in a blink of an eye!
Always be sensitive to the chicks needs over the fun of holding them.
One fun thing to do is to put some feed in your hand and let them peck at it.
This is a great way to get them use to you so they will make good pets later on.
