CHEEP CHEEP!

Hello my friends!  Guess what was delivered today????Thats right, these little cuties.

I had to order a minimum of 8 chicks. So I ordered all girls. (I already have 2 crazy roosters and 2 hens)
 I ordered 2 black silkie bantams, 2 silver sebright bantam,1 black sumatra, 1 buff laced polish,1 white crested black polish bantam, and 1 silver laced polish chicks. The Post Office called me the minute they arrived and I quickly went to pick them up. I could hear their peeps the second I walked in. They will all have the fancy feathers on top of their heads. I am hoping that my other 4 get along with them. They are just so cute and so soft. I can't wait to show my grand daughters. In case you need a dose of cuteness, I mail ordered them from mypetchicken.com.




Things are going well in the garden. I spent a couple of hours weeding today.

I felt I was being watched;)



I planted some pretty lilies.

I thought I was going to have some help from these two but Fergies was exhausted....(from sleeping)


....and Dante was busy doing other things.

Hope you are having a wonderful Tuesday. It is finally a gorgeous sunny day here. Tonight it will rain again and water in all of my plants,
'Till next time...

  4. You made me smile with the chickens. Years ago when I worked for the Post office, we used to get the chicks in the mail. They would be squaking up a storm! Most people don't realize they come through the mail!
