Well, no chicks today. Yesterday Little Maiden and I went to the LFS to get chicken mash. They had a large box just hopping with chicks. I asked about them but the chicks were Ameraucanas. I have four White Leghorns and four Rhode Island Reds coming. But the clerk said those chicks would come in Thursday or Friday. I bought 50# of mash and half a pound of red seed potatoes for my fifth SFG.
I was happily surprised today when I got home from work. My chicken run was up and the chicken door had been cut! GH and Little Maiden had been busy. They also had filled the fifth SFG so I planted my potatoes today!

I’m already anticipating eggs for Easter next year! I wonder if people with Ameraucana chickens sell more eggs around Easter because Ameraucanas lay blue or green eggs? I think I’d like to have some just for that reason. No dyeing necessary!
The winds are blowing pretty hard today. Hopefully I can get out and do some yard work when things dry out and warm up a bit.
