The Chicks Are Here!!!

We received a call from the post office at 6:30 am this morning, "Your chicks are here."

If you could "hear" this box it would be making a racket of loud, curious cheep, cheeps.
So peep inside the box with this short video clip... :0)

Little Cock Chickie in the background has a thing or two to say about being photographed...

There are 256 broiler chickens and 56 Barred Rock hens exploring their new warm home... The chicks are just hours old and sway back and forth for balance on their little new legs. They demonstrate wonderful skill in the 2 yard dash as they tear across their box from one end to the other preparing for the Great Worm Competition to be held on the day of the first rain (watch for future posts).
