Chickens and Ducks, Oh My!

We are the proud parents of 12 chickens and 3 ducks!  People always ask why did you get ducks?  The first answer--because they are cute?  The follow up?  Because we like our house to smell absolutely horrible and we like messes.  














Abby really loves her chickens!

And her duck, who she named Unicorn!

Our new chicken run!

We really hope our chickens survive all the wild animals this year!  As we were building this we had fox prints all around the coop.  :/  

Levi loves the chicken too!


Jasper is Owen's duck.  They finally get to move outside!

And this is Splash!



We have the sweetest chickens again!

Don't kiss the birdies Liv!

Joey moving the coop--again.  He is very patient with me selecting where I want the coop!

These ducks and chickens got way to big for this!  And we had to separate the six extra baby chicks we picked up!

Nia 2.  Named after Abby's chicken Nia from last year. 

Say hello to Dirt.



Don't squeeze too hard, Liv.


Turns out having chickens is in my blood.  This is my great grandma with her chickens.  "My chickens are splinded, growing in to fryers rapattlie (rapidly)."  :)  The caption on the picture is "Mama and her darlings" 

The cats know the chicks are here!

Chicks are a comin'!
