Bruneaux is very interested in all of the chick noises and smells.....a little toooo interested if you ask me...

Today is the Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today is the day that I get the chicks!!!
Here's my shopping list for O'Neals (the fabulous feedstore here)
1. 7 chicks
2. chick feed
3. waterer
4. feeder
5. pine shavings
6. clip on lamp? (we may already have one of these...I have to check)

I decided to name the chickens after former first ladies. I haven't decided on exact names....I want to see what their personalities are first....
Here are ideas:
1. Lady Bird (my fav)
2. Jackie
3. Eleanor
4. Barbara
5. Hillary
6. Laura
7. Betty
8. Dolly
10. Abagail
11. Rosalynn
12. Nancy
13. Mamie (love that name)
14. Grace Anna (Coolidge)
15. Edith (Wilson)
16. Florence (Harding)

Which are your favorite chicken names?
