Here are the pictures of the chickens during the first few weeks we had them.  This pictures were taken May 24 2012.  The chicks ranged from 2-4 weeks old.  We have 7 different breeds.  We planned on getting all the same breed but when my husband went to purchase them (planning on getting 6)  the farm had 7 different breeds so my husband figured he would get one of each.  We kept them in the rubbermaid container in the living room for about 6-8 weeks.  The top picture is my youngest testing out the chicken coop with the chickens.  We did not leave them- the chickens or my son- in the coop overnight.  The chickens however started staying the coop  at about 8 weeks old.  We built a tractor chicken coop.  I hope to add picture of the process of building the coop soon.  We are able to move the coop around the yard.  However we are still working on having a better wheel system for the coop because it is too heavy for the current wheels.  We are hoping to get eggs from our chickens in another month or so.  More pictures to come.
