Oh Yea, We’ve Got Chicks!

Genie (Rhode-Island Red)

Cynthia (Black Sex-Link)

Marie (Arcauna)

Let me introduce the three most recent additions to the Walter’s household. Yes folks, we have acquired three chickens (Cynthia, Genie, and Marie) for the purpose of providing us with backyard fresh eggs within the next six months or so.  Let me apologize in advance to all of the Cynthia’s, Genie’s, and Marie’s of the world.  You have beautiful names! So glorious, in fact, that my fourteen year old bestowed them upon our adorable baby chicks!

So I am hoping that this is not a complete disaster, and that it only places us one step closer to country living and the comfort of knowing where our food is coming from.
