Fun with Spring Chicks

The chicks are now about 3 weeks old and getting big fast. They are outgrowing the box but we haven’t found a bigger one yet. So, instead we’ve been taking them into the greenhouse each day so they can run around in the seedlings and new plants and under our watchful eye.


Smile!


Hiding out in the cinder block

They are so funny how they flap around, peck and Britton said he even saw them dust bathing! We also found that they scurry around and hide if I talk in a high voice as you can see in this video. They must think it’s a hawk or something. The black one doesn’t care as much. Everyone wanted in the greenhouse to see what was going on-Kitty, Schnoodle and the big chickens. The only one we trust completely with them at this age is Schnoodle. She could care less about them.
