Chick update

The chicks have been getting more visitors and more attention these days than anything else around here so I thought I would give you an update. A week after the first batch came in, Gunnar got 6 more chicks. The new ones are layers and so we should have more eggs than we know what to do with. They are all growing quickly. The chickens in the first batch are starting to get their adult feathers, so they are in a rather awkward in between feather stage.

We have not named them, but my favorite one is a blond and black one. I end up holding him/her (we won't know until later) the most, and consequently it is the friendliest.
