First baby chicks of the year!


The first Little Sprouts Chicks for 2011 started hatching today! Always exciting to see the variety of color and type from our mix of heritage breed chickens. This is hte second generation of mixes of about 5 heritage breeds. Our goal is to keep mixing them for a few generations to see what chicken crossed between several heritage breeds exactly looks like. At this poin the variety we get is staggering :)
