    Loved the show! A few years ago you aired a show with chicks and that show stuck with me. Now that we are finally in a place we can have our own chicks, we are finally raising our own little flock. They are 7 weeks old now and are absolutely adorable little things. It was nice to see you talk about your chickens again, and I love mypetchicken.com! :)
