I LOVE CHICKS!

We went to Orchlen's 2 weeks ago after puppy food and came out with 22 chicks and 2 baby turkeys! The kids LOVE their turkeys and they swear the turkeys KNOW them! They were constantly holding them and loving on them. Many a time I'd walk into the living room and there they were with a baby turkey sleeping in their lap! LOL!  Last weekend we stopped back in Orschlen's and they had the cutest bantam chicks so of course, we got 3! I even picked out my own and I swear it KNOWS me! LOL!! They were getting loud (and stinky) living in boxes in the spare bedroom so yesterday we sectioned off a portion of the shed and they moved out there. They LOVE it! If you would have told me 3 months ago, I would have 5 goats, 27 chickens and a new pup I would have laughed hysterically! Now odds are if you call me after dark, I am outside, in the barn shed, sitting, laughing at antics and shaking my head in disbelief! LOL
