Chicks

For the past few years we have been thinking about raising some backyard chickens.  This year we finally took the plunge.

First step, find some adorable baby chicks. That was easy.

 Poor chicks.  They went through a lot of "torture."  But they made it through fine without injury.

 

 We call Tayo the chicken whisperer.  He would hold them like a baby, rock them, and say, "Shhh, shh, shh."  Even now that the chickens are bigger, there is still one chicken only he can catch and hold calmly.
