My grandson Tyler has quite the imagination. 

He was introduced to our chickHENS (as he calls them) when he visited this summer.

This blog entry is for him. A time line of our chickies.

 Just wee little chicks.

The ugly teen age years

First home - the greenhouse

Finally, the coop was ready and they were glad to have a place to run around in. 

This is how they look today. I really wanted buff orphingtons 

but this was what they had at 

TSC and the price was one we couldn't pass up.

and following is the story he told his mama today.

woke up to tyler very concerned about the eggs in the fridge... apparently they where hatching baby chickens...so of course i had to go check and he took every egg out cause he really thought they had hatched...and then he said one chicken ran away and we had to look all over for it...then he wanted to hold an egg cause grammie holds eggs in her hands...
