Happy Easter!

These are the new babies! No, I didn't plan on getting chicks for Easter. Our silkie started sitting a few weeks ago and stopped laying. Adam tried to bar her from her nest to trick her out of it but she wouldn't stop. Okay, we're down one hen, maybe we should let her experience motherhood. My chicken mentor, John, brought me some fertilized eggs last week to give to her to sit on. That same day she stopped sitting and has lost all interest apparently. So yesterday we drove to the Southern States a couple towns over and got these two chicks. We had to get two because there were two different kinds of chicks, however, we didn't see the flaw in that reasoning when we changed our minds and got the last two Rhode Island Reds. We're actually hoping one's a rooster this time but I have a feeling that will just lead to two hens!

The First Friday Indie Market was great! I love meeting all the great new people and catching up with ones I've met before. It feels like a party! This was my first market sporting my new banner made by Red Canary. Mama and I added the border. Still needs a little work but I'm really excited to have it up!
