We are now the proud owners of 3 baby chicks!  They are the White Rock breed for those of you who know a bit about chickens.  They are about 2 to 3 days old and couldn’t be cuter if they tried.  Little poofs of warm fuzziness…..with little repetitive peep peep peeps.  

This is the beginning…we have always tried to hold on in little ways to being somewhat sustainable…planting veggies in any inch of dirt we have,  Composting kitchen scraps, repurposing something that could be trash, into a treasure.  Now we’ve got chickens!!! 

These little sweet handfuls of love will in a short time be providing all of the eggs that we could possibly want.  They will be earthy and rich and perfect anyway you serve them up.  It’s amazing to know that these little gals will be laying eggs in a mere matter of months.  There’s a catch 22 to it…they are so little and precious right now that a part of me wants them to never change, but also knowing that they will be providing us with a bounty of eggs makes me want them to hurry up and get big fast!

Here they are in all their cuteness:
