the box arrived....

This morning the mail man came a little earlier than usual. He had a nice little box for me with 8 baby chicks. Everyone arrived in good condition and were happy to get out of the little box in their new home. The first 5 weeks our friends will live in a brooder, a temporary house until they can go outside in the real chicken coop. The brooder has a lamp to heat the little fellows, a feeder with special food and a water container.
