Look at my feathers...and aren't I so cute standing in my feed dish?
Update: These chickens grew up to be a lovely golden color with VERY fluffy behinds!
2 tiny bantams standing beside the others, their favorite spot to cuddle up.
It's like the others are their Mom.
Looking up at another chick
This is "Pepper" Ruth's little one...regular feet.
See my tail feathers?
Last
night this is how I left them when I went to bed...like a little fuzzy
carpet. Notice 4 are in the feed dish! One's head is dangling out.
Mei's
little "Cookie"...if you look closely your eyes really aren't playing
tricks on you...his/her feet are growing fuzzy feathers! Adorable yes!
Notice
the size difference! The little black one in the back is Kate's
"Licorice".... Her 1st licorice had a bad leg that
could not be fixed. After many tears for all of us, she claimed another
Licorice as her own, and left the 1st to chicky heaven.
The 8 day old chicks were from our own Buff Orpington Rooster " Cornpops" and our regular Brown ISA laying hens. The 4 day olds are the bantam/heritage breed mix we ordered and received in the mail!
