I've come to pick up my Peeps

I have six roosters crowing in my ear.

We brought home four bantam cross cocks today and man can they yell. The boys are for my new chicks. They have experience fighting off hawks and two of them have even defeated an eagle. I figured they would be perfect for keeping my girls safe when I'm not around.

As for me new peeps, I picked up 43 darling baby hens on Thursday. They are absolutely tiny and very curious about the world around them. They will live in the brooder until the weather warms up enough. Until then, I get to wipe their bottoms. That last part is not as cute as it sounds.
