Introducing Bluegrass Farms

    Bluegrass farms is a place where we share our backyard, hillside farm experiences. We have a tomato patch and just ordered 4 baby chicks. We are getting an Americauna, a Barred Plymouth Rock, an Australorp, and a Speckled Sussex. They are being shipped on April 19 (Ezra's birthday)! We have started designing the chicken coop and run.

This is where we ordered the chickens from:

Here is a drawing of what our chicken coop will look like:




Our chickens:


This is an Americauna! She lays green and blue eggs and is extremely friendly!
Her name is FLEUR DELACOUR



This is a Speckled Sussex! She is beautiful and lays brown eggs!
Her name is LAVENDER BROWN



This is a Barred Plymouth Rock! She is a friendly bird and lays a lot of brown eggs!
Her name is MOLLY


 
This is an Australorp! She is black with an iridescent tinge and lays many brown eggs!

That's it for now - time to eat some fresh baked brownies we made earlier.

Love, Cleo & Ezra
