We stopped at Wilco last week and came home with 6 chicks...
gonna get 4 more on Wednesday...
The kids are SO excited they can hardly stand it.
Jack loves to stand and stare at them... he isn't so big on picking them up yet....
first time, he dropped the chick right on the ground.
emma named her chick "diva" this should surprise me... but for some reason it just makes me smile... I hope it doesn't end up being a rooster!
so here is the story...
Josh isn't big on chickens and isn't thrilled that we are getting them...
he says that the girls and I can take care of them... and since he takes care of the dogs and cats, I think that is a good trade as long as he helps me if I every get desperate! :D
So Friday I say "please come with me to order the chicks...." he agrees and comes along...
We get there and he sees the chicks and he sees a "turken"
Yes a "turken" a turkey-chicken... it lays brown eggs and is the ugliest thing ever...
He wants one...
so we end up going home with 5 chicks... one for each kid and a turken for josh....
he has affectionately called it "Mr. T" although we are hoping "she" is a girl....
Josh is wondering btw.. can a Turken also be called a Churkey? just a thought.
in case you can't find Mr. T.... she is the one with the yellow fro and no neck hair... with a lovely tuft of chest hair.... :D
