We got chicks! Sam and his friend, Jim, decided they want to be farmers and started with chickens. Jim ordered 4 chicks and 2 where supposed to be ours and 2 were his but they all where going to live at Jim's house. Once the chicks arrived Sam wanted us to have our very own that would be at our house so he ordered 2 Barred Rocks and 2 Rhode Island Reds.
The chicks came in earlier than we thought so we quickly got a brooder together. Porter and Ruby love the chicks. Ruby is always leaning over their box and yelling "BABY CHICKENS, BABY CHICKENS, WAKE UP!" They may be little but I dont know why she thinks they are deaf. 
We each named a chick, the boys named the black chicks and the girls named the yellow chicks.
Porter - Lite
Ruby - Maggie
Sam - Colonel Sanders but we call her Sandy
Krista - Beast (the only one left was the biggest of the bunch and since I named Ruby's chick Maggie I named mine Beast after the show Maggie and the Ferocious Beast)
