A Little Chicky Update

The little peepers are doing very well. Since the weather continues to be all kinds of oogie, I have them covered up in a quilt-lined fortress of solitude in the big purple shed. Between catching the heat with blankets and having two heat lamps hung low, they are doing very well. No huddling, just cozy plonking into big fuzzy piles of cuteness. There are plenty of little ones zipping around the edges of the crowd, and now that everyone has realized how wonderful water and starter crumble is, they are eating and drinking (and pooping) up a storm. I am hoping that the days start warming up and drying out soon. It will be nice to not have to wade through mud and soppy puddles to get into the shed! Until then, I believe these chicks are going to grow very well indeed. More pictures to come!
