How cute are our baby chicks! We are getting about 2 dozen eggs a day from last springs chicks, and we just added 50 chicks a few weeks ago, so by fall we will really be getting dozens of eggs a day. Into recycling? Save your egg cartons for us and bring them when you visit, we'll send you home with a dozen fresh range eggs. The chickens love it when we have left over pasta and fruit. We compost anything they don't eat. And we recycle glass, paper including old magazines and cardboard, aluminum and plastic. We have cut back our input to landfills by over half in just a few years by recycling and the compost is great for the gardens.
Dakota was happy to pick up her baby chicks at Lawrence Feed and Farm. Roger ordered 25 yellow chickens and 25 red for us. They are so much bigger then they were in these pictures already!
