Babies

Cousins.

Twenty-one babies arrived Thursday night.

I repotted leggy tomato plants that grew from seed.  I am hoping for many cherry tomatoes!  I also have a couple of butternut squash plants that are healthy so far...

The babies snuggled down for sleeping.  We were concerned about keeping them warm enough under two red heat lamps.  These little ones are in the living room, so our house looks a bit like a brothel at night.

They are warm enough.  Look at this girl stretching her little leg out.  Before I took the picture she had both legs out.
So, we will look forward to eggs this September.  In the meantime, our old ladies should keep producing their lovely eggs.  The trees are beginning to bud and we are oh so excited for summer!

Ma n' Pa have arrived and already replaced the foggy kitchen window.  The boys are beyond excitement and the sun has come out.  Yay!
