Chicks & Piggies....Oh how they have grown;)

So....I had to move my chicks out of their box and into Claire's cage. She was very upset with me when I did this. She literally looked at me like "What the heck are you doing?" The chicks are starting to get very messy. I changed their paper today and look at it? It's a mess again. I like the wood shavings better, but with the chicks being in a cage, they kick the shavings out the side. So I guess I am stuck with Newspaper. 3 more weeks and they will be outside. Woot! Woot!
We weighed the piggies today. The York weighs 256. 2 more weeks until fair and I think we are doing pretty well..... If you can't tell, I am feeding him his evening snack. (marshmellow)

The Spot weighed in at 246. He also loves marshmellows.


The Hereford weighed in at 216. She needs to start eating more, however she doesn't have a big appetite. If I could feed her marshmellows all day, she would be happy!
