Peeps

 The babies are getting quite big and the kids love watching them grow. We grabbed some chicks from Tractor Supply (after we said we weren't buying any this year) and we now have 6 Cornish Rocks that we are raising to butcher and 6 Australorps. Our 6 hatchlings are doing great and are little fluff balls. I have a feeling all of them might be Cochin mixes (most of them have the feathered feet too)

The Cornish Rocks are younger than the Australorps and have already passed them in size. It's our first time with meat chickens and I can't believe how solid they are! We'll be having a butchering party here in a few weeks!
