The chicks are growing! If you remember from last post, this is what the chicks looked like a one day old. Little yellow puffballs.
At three weeks old, they are getting their “big bird” feathers. They are still in a transition phase though similar to those awkward early high school teenage years. If you look closely, they have their adult feathers on their wings and body, but their heads still have that yellow chick fuzz. At least they are all in it together and don’t have to worry about being stuffed in a locker after gym class!
Anyway, it seems like they are growing every day. They are enjoying their GMO-free food from Hiland Naturals that is tested and guaranteed to be pesticide, herbicide and medication free. What they are liking even more though is the grass and clover clippings we are tossing in a couple times a day to give them a taste of the salad bar pasture they will soon be moved to. Just waiting for that yellow fuzz to turn to white feathers. In about a week’s time, they will be put out on pasture to enjoy all the grass, clover, and other greenery, as well as bugs and worms, they can. Then a few weeks after that, they will be ready to take home for you and your family to enjoy.
