Right now in my neck of the woods it is chick season. Where is my neck of the woods? I live in beautiful northern Forsyth county, only a few miles south of Dawsonville, GA. Starting in March, local pet stores as well as farm equipment stores have baby chicks and baby ducks for sell. I love chick days, there is nothing cuter that a little fluffy chick, or better yet a fluffy yellow duck. This year was special because my daughter is 13 months old and loves animals. Coming back from the library my husband saw a sign for baby chicks and of course we had to stop and show Carter these little darlings. She loved them. Personally, I would never consider taking one of these little cuties home with me, and I am very happy that my daughter is too young to beg for a pet chick. Baby chicks turn into chickens that smell really bad. Everyone hates the smell of a chicken coup. You are probably wondering if the chicks actually sell with the smell associated with them and my answer is yes. People have the fantasy of going out in their backyard and picking eggs that Sally the chick laid the other day. With all the concern over where our food is coming from, it is nice to know that the eggs for your omelet came right out of your backyard.
