Frustratingly I've been unable to do much of anything for the last week and a half... For one week I was completely bed ridden, and during this time Ben went off and got some chicks.... He's been so excited about this - as have I. Sadly I couldn't go with him to get them, but the box was carried up to my room so I could look at the little fluff balls when they came home. A week has gone by and they've grown like stink. I'm now able to go outside for a bit and putter around, so I finally got some photos of our new feathered friends. The bigger ones are 4 weeks old and in their "ugly" phase for sure... The little ones are 2 weeks old now and still quite cute although their adult feathers are starting to "sprout". In another 12 weeks or so, we might start having some fresh eggs! Omelette anyone?
Very cute! I am so loving living right downtown but I'll admit I do miss some aspects of country life, the chickens for instance. You're so lucky :)
