Our Cornish Broilers & Buff Orpington's have arrived! Chicks are so cute and right now the house is just 'cheeping' away! The girls and I are getting ready to go make the chicken nursery hospitable to our newest little ones. This little chick is one of the Buffs we are keeping the buffs as setters and they will be long term residents with the job of hatching our eggs.
We always go and pick up our chickens from Ideal Poultry in Cameron instead of having them shipped. It may cost us more then $8 shipping however every time we go we visit our friends the Benavides! That is priceless!!!

So if you are coming by the hill now is the time to see some babies!
Happy New Year!
