HEY GUYS,
THERE'S SOME NEW CHICKS
IN TOWN
After all, it is Easter time.
Not sure why,
but Easter is all about
eggs, and bunnies, and baby chicks.
Two days ago, our local hatchery
got in a shipment of just-hatched chicks:
Buff Orpingtons and Rhode Island Reds.
(see photos above)
The good news:
Customers are buying them to start raising chickens.
The bad news:
There are some places selling dyed baby chicks
as Easter gifts for children.

If you're celebrating Easter or Passover,
it's time to start getting ready.
(But please, no dyed chicks!)
Oh I don't like pink baby chicks !:(
ReplyDeletehmmm ... I've never seen in my life colored baby chicks, and I think I do not like that! But I hope it will be harmless ... and whether there is now a purple cow (a chocolate in Germany) or multicolorierte chicks are ...

Happy Easter to you

Here in Japan we do not have this tradition, so I'll just stay with the traditional chocolates ...

ReplyDeleteI want one (of the normal-colored chicks)!! How adorable! Great shots. You are awesome.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, they are adorable, but the coloring "thing" is so sad.
