: "In Summer 2022, my husband and I bought our perfect dream home for us and our three daughters. It had the potential for homesteading and starting to get more 'off the grid'. In spring 2023 we were disgusted with the price of eggs and inflation. So, we took the plunge and got baby chicks! We thought our daughters would maybe only help with collecting eggs when chicks matured enough, however, we were wrong! Our middle daughter is OBSESSED and they are her babies! She rides them on her four-wheelers, she cuddles them in her bed with popcorn to watch movies, she plays tag in the grass with them, she swings with them, etc. The chickens LOVE her. She says 'Momma, I calm them down!'"
