Things moving along

We got the plough in working condition today. The kids had fun playing on the equipment as Joe worked. My seedlings are coming along well and the chicks are getting big. We should be able to plough the garden as soon as the ground dries out a little more.

New babies

Joe let me get a few new chicks today. Nine to be exact and three turkeys. I'm looking forward to seeing how the turkeys will do as they will be living with the chickens. I have read that they can get sick and die from things chickens carry. Also I have all my seeds planted and under lights. My basement is looking a little full with the garden things and now a pen for the chicks. At least it's only temporary.

eggs

The chicks are staring to lay eggs! Karlee took pictures to try to show the size of the eggs. We are getting about 11 eggs a day out of 14 hens. Not to bad for this time of the year and their age.
