The chicks are here!!!!

Day 23 (of 21? lol) brought the babies!!!! We had SEVEN chicks born. 1 during the day, 1 in the evening, & the other 5 arrived at night. 
Rob had gone to a meeting at 9PM, I fell asleep putting the little fellas to bed & he woke me up yelling SEVEN!! We have SEVEN!! I was sound asleep so I was really confused, lol!!! 

Here is their first photo: 

And today (day 25), we moved them into their brooder box!! I had to make it because Rob isn't home & they had to be moved. Hopefully I did an ok enough job & they all make it! :) 
It was eventful. The heat lamp was too close so it was really hot! 

Then I attached it to the lamp nearby & melted the box. 😳
But, I finally found the right location! And, we started the move. 


The boys absolutely love this whole process! And I love watching their excitement. ❤️


No names yet! O keeps suggesting names like chocolate & hot fudge sundae so we're waiting...... lol
