Here today....

Well, we had about as much fun with our chicks as one could possibly have. They helped us plant our garden and landscape our annual flowers, they gave us lots of laughs chasing them around and following Adalie wherever she went, we loved watching them scratch for bugs and eat green right from our hands. The girls loved to carry them around like their little babes, singing to them and making them nests. But, like most things in life, they were here today and gone tomorrow.
(Looks like some crafty little fox dug under the coop and carried them off..... or like the girls say, maybe they chicks escaped and are living with the wild turkeys. So until we know for sure, we will keep a close eye on the turkey flocks!!)

As Amma says, "se la vi!" We are happy to have had fun with them while they lasted! And next year, we will fortify the coop once again......
