Chicks are Growing



Those chicks are GROWING. From adorable little fluffy peeping cuties, to gawky tweens- yes, they are growing feathers and longer legs and big feet - still cute?

We raise chickens for eggs. It takes about six months from chick to egg laying hen. Spring hatched pullets start laying in autumn, but then take a break during the dark and cold winter
. August hatched chicks start laying in February - prime egg season.
