We have a couple of watermelons growing in our garden...the hens are going to love them!
Garlic.
Bell pepper.
Lettuce and carrots.
The chicks are now 5 weeks old...where does time go? This bottom picture is one of the roosters...he's not completely feathered out.
The chicks are 2 weeks old today. They are really starting to feather out. We took them out of the pool last Saturday...they were starting to fly out.
The chicks are one week old and have grown a lot! If you look close, you can see they have started getting feathers on their wings. I'm feeding them turkey feed for 2 weeks and then I'll switch them to chicken grower feed. The turkey feed has 30% protein, which is very important the first 2 weeks.
This morning I picked up our day old chicks from the post office. We ordered 25 chicks, but they sent us 26. All of these chicks are broilers, so they will be in the freezer in about 6 to 8 weeks.
We finished the baby chicks coop last night...I never want to build something that fast again! We worked everyday (after DH got home from work) this past week on it and all day Friday and Saturday. 
The chicks spent their first night in their new home last night...I was out there around 2am checking on them. 
One of the leghorn roosters...all the leghorns will go in the freezer as soon as they are big enough...DH and I both don't like them.
Inside their new home...the Dominique's are so friendly...they will come up to you and let you pet them like a dog. One was sitting in Britt's hand earlier today. 
My sister brought these chicks to me last night from the Houston Livestock Show. They hatched this past week at the show in incubators. They are so cute!
