The newly hatched sweet little baby chickens 🥰 arrived yesterday and today!
These guys (hopefully gals) were hatched from egg colors we only have 1-4 chickens can produce. For instance, we have only one chicken currently that can lay green eggs, so 3 of these are her green egg babies. A couple of blue eggs, a white egg, a couple of super dark brown eggs. To try to produce more variety in egg colors in the future.
They get a feather duster to help them feel safer and more like they would if they were being raised with a mother chicken, so they can run and hide in the feathers. Though they seem to be pretty happy just snuggling with each other under the heat lamp 😊
These guys are going to also be getting a renovated living area to move out into, so that we can provide top coverage for better protection from predators. We’ve lost almost all the chicks we have hatched due to predators that must be coming from above! 😭😭😭
The kids absolutely were overjoyed to see them hatching, cheering for them to crack their eggs 🥰🥰🥰 giggling to hold the little fluff balls and giving them their names like Julia and Zinnia.
All 5 chicks hatched today!!! 2 yellow chicks from leghorn chickens. 2 dark chicks with light stripes from olive egger chickens. 1 dark chick with feathered legs from a Maran chicken. 🥰
We can’t believe it! Never had 100% hatch rate from the incubator.
The new babies hatching! 🥰
Two more chicks on their way….

They’re ready to just walk in the back door 😆🫣
Cake strips help keep the cake edges cooler, lengthening the time it takes for the edges to cook…so the middle of the cake can catch up!
Today’s eggs…so far. There’s usually a few stragglers that lay their eggs after 5pm.

No interest in coming out into the snow! 🐓🚫❄️
Inside chickens. They hate snow.
Folks been asking how the chickens are or where they are during the snow…they seem to HATE the snow, so they don’t leave their cozy chicken mansion when the ground is covered.
