Doughnut Box Full Of...

We went for a ride today and came back with a Tim Hortons doughnut box full of...


chicks


We have been waiting ever so patiently since December, when we got our permit, to pick these girls up.



We have a Brabanter, Easter Egger, Buff Orpington, Black Australarp and Goldlaced Wyandotte that were just hatched three days ago (3/11) and then a Black "Cuckoo" Maran that was hatched 2 weeks ago (2/28).

We'll have a pretty unique flock to look at that give us a pretty diverse color set of eggs.




Tessa was the chick master.
She was so enthralled with them and they seemed to like her right back.




We got them set up in their brooder for the next few weeks and our coop plans are now in overdrive.

I’m Stephanie, the mind and Momma behind The Heirloom Family. I created this blog as a way to capture the magic of our family and the beauty of every day slow and simple living. I also hope it serves as an inspiration to you as well.

Nestled in our little corner of the Earth in Western New York, I am lucky enough to share my home with my husband and our daughter, along with 4 cheerful cats.

We strive for a wholesome life, one that is slow and steady. I want to breathe it in, this time we have, and I might just be lucky enough to see the magic in it all.

There are so many things in life that I love – nature. crochet. photography. gardening. cooking. faith. honey. reading. sunsets and sunrises. flowers. ballet. enchantment. Dave Matthews Band. the moon. rainbows. babywearing. lavender and sandalwood. celebrations. music. hippie. poetry. love. the forest. romantic history. cats. dreamcatchers. wool. heritage. family. lilac. red wine. memories.
