More

Our chicks will be in next month! I can't wait!!

Um, well, I kind of... didn't.

This is what happened:

We go into the feed store to pick up a couple of items. Immediately we hear the sweet little peeps of none other than chicks! I couldn't wait. Especially since I discovered they were Bantams (the little "mini" chickens) and one of the batches were Cochins with potential of being frizzles. I love my Cochins and we love our two little roos sooo....

We now have 8 more little itty bittys!

And, yes, I will still get my chicks next month because I want regular sized eggs not just itsy bitsy teeny tiny ones.

Meet the crew ~

Penny, Cat, and Robyn are the Cochins. Penny is by far the largest and Pip is so tiny compared to the others. I believe Pip is going to be barred, which is one of my favorite markings. I have guesses but absolutely no idea as to what they will look like when grown. You know I'll post more photos as they grow. It'll be fun to compare in a few months, even weeks. Oh, and, of course, there's always the possibility of a rooster but we're hoping they're only girls!
