Peep update

We got all the chicks in the brooders now.
Here's the Farmer's Wife with our homemade brooders.
Five peeps in one.
Four peeps in the other. Yes, we lost the one we were worried about. Don't know why. Just Mother nature I guess. All the others seem healthy and really cute. They are all eating, drinking, and pooping. They grow fast, so it won't be too long before we move them out of the house. I want mostly hens, but I want one Rooster that I can pick up and pet and make him my buddy, cause Butch attacked me from behind again yesterday and I've had about enough. Just like Frank. Gramma can't go down to the barn without a stick. So I'm going to pick these little ones up and make them my friends. Maybe it will work, we'll see. Bye

  1. Sit on the rooster. It worked for me with my turkey.

  2. Feed the rooster M&M's and/or other assorted candies. It works for the kids.
