Author: Our friends Kim and Midge went to Cackle Hatchery today and got our babies. Aren’t they cute? They arrived in what amounts to a shoebox with air holes. Inside there is a heating pad, a pad that simulates hay, a little green block of what is called solid h2o and baby chickens. In our case, there are 10 of them. They make the sweetest peeping sound! We set up their new home – a large orange plastic container, a heating lamp, a mason jar waterer, the hay pad and the warmer all settled nicely on some paper towels.
