Chicks!!

We've got 3 chicks from the market today. Think its "Isa Brown" or something brown...couldn't catch what the seller was saying. The seller said the earliest time when they will start laying eggs is around Christmas time. We went to the nearest pet store and bought some chick start....hopefully 5Kg will be enough to last them for the 1st 3 weeks.

Craig setup them up in a foam box and put a light in it to provide heat for the chicks. Later when they are much bigger, we'll get them running in the garden. That means we have to make a chook pen....hmmm seems like a men's job to me. The chicks seems to like their new home, exploring every corner of it.

Hungry chicks happily pecking their food.

small fluffy things....
