Our chicks arrived today! We have 4 Rhode Island Reds and 4 Buff Orpingtons. The kids and I are in love! One of the Rhode Island Reds seems to be attached to me. She seems to come when I make a kissing sound and at times she tries to jump out of the cage. Today she fell asleep in the palm of my hand. When I put her down, instead of stepping off my hand to join her friends, she tried to fly further up my arm.
The kids are having a ball with them. They are getting really good with being gentle with them.
We expect to be getting 8 more girls in April, plus one boy. Then in May we will get 4 more, for a total of 20 chickens and 1 Rooster.
