A couple in their 60's, a 1940's army building turned into a 3 bedroom cottage, 2.5 acres, vegetable and herbal gardens, goats, chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits, Great Pyrenees, rescue dogs and cats, living as simple and frugal as possible. That is what you will find written about here. Thank you for stopping by. Share anything you like and ask any questions you wish!

I Am A Mommy
This little chick hatched from a forgotten egg under the heat lamp after the 7 other chicks were moved. They were over a week old when we moved them and the several eggs left I forgot to get rid of or turn the lamp off. This little one hatched out and is too small and young to go with the others so I am being his mommy, talking to him, cuddling him, cleaning his poop butt, and making sure he stays warm in his box house with a heat lamp. Making sure he eats and drinks and gets lots of attention. I think I am in love.

They certainly grow on you!
Boy, what's not to love about that little guy?! ;-)
Oh, we've gone though several "lonely chicks". And they usually end up spending most of their time in my shirt pocket just so they shut up for a little bit. The lonely peeping drives me nuts! :)
Hope your little guy (hopefully girl) gets in with the rest of the gang soon.
Ahhh---I'm in love too. That little chick is gorgeous!!!! Glad you are being such a good Mommy to him.
Hugs,
Betsy
That is just soooo sweet.
