Finally! I thought Elaine was going to go into cardiac arrest when she saw them. These might be harder than the pigs. She worries me... All fifty made it here safely. They immediately started eating and drinking, which is a great sign! That means that they were relatively warm on their trip. It is supposed to be 90 degrees out today, so that makes sense. Only a couple of them are hanging out under the brooder.

And the girls are in love! Is anyone surprised? Riley even held one by herself. I love teaching the kids about where our food comes from. If anyone else wants to do the same feel free to visit us.

And that really is an open invitation. If there is anyone who would like to come meet our new chicks just drop us a line and we'll let you know when a good time is.
Thanks for reading,
