You know that panic feeling you got when the doctor put your first newborn child in your arms and you thought, "What in the world am I supposed to do now?" It was kinda similar today - 100 chicks and we have no IDEA what we are doing! I mean we've read about it but we all know it's not the same. Good thing they're cute. Ok, let's do this thing!
The chicks came when I was getting milk from the dairy and the post office called Ter to pick them up, but my phone was on mute (always convenient), so he couldn't get a hold of me and had to leave work early and go to the post office himself. Sorry, hun! Anyway, he and the girls got the chicks put into their brooder, dipped their beaks in water and showed them their food and they were all set.
Not really sure what to say here.
We all thought these chicks were just the cutest things and played with them for a long while. Even Bo held them gently...enough. We were surprised to see them still alive the next morning. Success! Now 8 weeks to go.
Happy new experiences!
