Awwww! So cute! Congrats on the new chicks. We did not get chickens this year like we had originally wanted/planned. Hopefully next year. Until then, I’ll live vicariously through you.

I am planning to put a piece of linoleum on the plywood floor - hoping it will be easier to clean.

Humans don’t really like the idea that death, ours or the chickens, is a natural event.
