We Have Chicks

This afternoon we picked up our first two chickens. They are 5 days old and still quite fluffy. The darker chick is a Barred Rock named Zoe. She is perky and a little feisty. The other chick, Kaylee, is a Buff Orpington. True to the Orp's reputation, she is very sweet. It is fun to have two girls with such different personalities and appearances. Here are some shots from their first day at home:
