Hello, it's been a while!
Today I accidentally acquired two baby Wyandottes
#so here's the situation#a friend of my mom got 6 chicks but can only have 4. so she asked if i could take two of them#but i want to move out in the next year or so if i can and I'll have to leave my chickens behind in my mom's care#i already have 12 which is already too many for her to care for without me#so i said sure I'll take the babies BUT I'll be looking for a new home for them#luckily my sister's friend wants more chickens so she said she'll take em#great! except when the babies arrived i found out my mom didn't mention that I won't be keeping them#so now i feel bad giving them away#what's more I'm pretty sure one is a cockerel and the home i was sending them to eats their roosters#so now i feel doubly bad bc these chicks' previous owner clearly loves them and was happy that i was taking them#so HOOOUUUUHHHGGGHHH okay#yes hello conscience you win. I'm keeping the babies#for now!#i have another home lined up for some of my chickens when i do move out so i guess it's fine if i add two more in the meantime#i am also going to give a couple of my hens away next month to the person i was going to give the chicks to#probably margaret and penelope and maybe one other but idk yet. it's a hard choice :(#they'll be well cared for but I'll miss them#oh btw these chicks were named tofu and dumpling by their last owner and those are cute names so I'll probably keep them#whew i am exhausted after all that#tofu#dumpling
