Baby Chicks

are here!! Pa and Ma had a muskrat that came and almost completely depleted their chickens this past fall. We set traps, filled holes, lock up chickens and the crazy thing kept coming back night after night. So for Christmas we built them a much needed new chicken coop, this thing is complete with concrete floors and all. Now all that is left is to replenish the stock. Pop and Nana found some chickens in Ohio and had bought them and had them shipped at a day old to Kentucky! Get this, they were delivered by the mailman--we all thought that was funny!! They are getting bigger now and have "graduated" from inside the house to outside i the shed, still with a heat lamp. What is spring without your own baby chicks, right in your own backyard?? Just one of the many reasons I love country livin'
