O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
The new laptop arrived. YIPPPEEE! Never say never folks, I have never been so happy to see a windows product!! Dell- how I love thee. I have a peeper there. They are supposed to be all girls but we know there probably is a rooster or two in the crowd. Abby took this yesterday. I will update the some other threads so look for new pics!!! For those of you that did not read the first chic entry, I live in a neighborhood that is a little snobby. They would freak out if they knew I had chickens. My plan is to keep it quiet as long as I can. For more details go to the first Code E.G.G. entry. She chortled in her joy!!
Are you going to give each a name?

Abby has named them all except one and her name will be Matty. It goes something like Penny, Henny, Jenny.... you get the idea?

Well ... you might have trouble "keeping it quiet" if one of those pullets grows up to be a ROOSTER!!! Hahahahaha.

Well, we are ONLY keeping 12. The rest of them are going to a "Farm" LOL really- a real farm! I keep telling my friends that and they all go "sure, that is where all animals go you don't want" It is an Organic farm not far from here where they sell unpasturized milk.

They are big teenagers! Chickens lay eggs between the ages of 4- 5.5 months. They will be exactly 2 months on the 3rd of May. I will update with a picture today.
