So maybe you can tell we are loving the chicks. The boys cannot get enough of them - they want to pick them up all the time - so much so I worry about the chick's stress levels!!! Well I guess it's better they get used to it!

So far, I clean their brooder every day, which takes about 10 minutes. I change their water at least twice a day and check their food once daily. They are messy, but it's all in the brooder. Eggwynn is far more curious (and a bit larger - I wonder if she may be older?)...She has started hopping out of the bin so when we go out we make sure there is a bit of light mesh to keep them all in!
They are growing before our eyes and I am concerned that a) the coop may not be built in time and b) we won't have the permit from Oak Bay to even have the chicken coop!
