The babies are here! The babies are here!

Josh went to Mt Healthy Hatchery this morning and came home with a box screaming: chirp! chirp! chirp! 

He got them home and quickly put them in the brooder. 

It's still pretty cold outside and, though the workshop is insulated, it's not heated. So he covered part of the top of the brooder with foam to keep their heat and the heat lamp heat inside. 

I was so anxious for work to be over so I could get home and see them!

Josh came home with the boys and they too rushed out to see the little ladies. It was a chick love fest!

Baxter kept picking up two chicks and making them kiss each other.

McGregor figured out how to get them to walk up onto his hand. 

Oliver tried to get them to stand on his finger and eat out of his hand. 

Such excitement!
