Happy Spring

Yep chicken knits lol

patterns to follow 

Happy Spring

Spring time :D

I went to the feed store just to see what kind of chicks they had, I was in town and almost there anyhow so why not ;)
Well this little sweetie needed a home, they had no clue what breed she is, she came in with the Black Stars...she was just too pretty to leave there...

of course we didn't want her to be alone on the ride home so we got 4 Black Stars :)
they are so cool...brave little girls jumped right in the mix










This little one came with our last order of chicks, we have no clue what breed...just that she has fuzzy feet :D

We tried starting seeds in egg shells worked great, 2 days after starting they were big enough to plant outside :D

                                          Our asparagus is coming up
We didn't lose as many plants as we feared, it looks like just the rosemary....

This is one of most curious chicks we have this batch, she loves to be held...but not so sure she likes the camera lol. She's a Rhode Island Red 

This little one is the first to come over every time. This is a mix between Ameraucana rooster and Rhode Island Red hen. 

                                                            

Very friendly, sweet birdie....
even though bigger always nice to the other chicks. Not sure if we have a roo  or pullet yet.

                                            Face shot of same chick, in the background there is a  Barred Rock pullet and the fuzzy toed bantam ( the black and white ones )...a production Red pullet and same Red pullet as the first shot on left....way in the back is another Ameraucana Red mix also not sure if boy or girl...
