Chillin with our Peeps

So 4/13/08 is about the time that we got our first set of 3 chicks. Here is Shraddha bright and early in the morning getting into the brooder with Laverne, Shirley and Ivanna.








Shraddha holding Laverne. Here she is only a 3 wks old Barred Rock. Quite possibly a bantam. Very cuddly!
















Barred Rock


















Shirley is the little puffy yellow one.... Shraddha's Favorite... at least this week.






Ivanna is the one with the yellow head and she is a White Crested Black Polish. You can see a tiny little top hat in this pic...





On the left.... I included a pic of a full grown polish bantam.




Shraddha spent hours at a time with these little chicks and they think she is mama. Sometimes she would even refuse to eat because she wanted to be with the chicks!!!!


One week later....I think LOL we picked up NINE more chicks. Shaking my head in disbelief...

A bunch of cute puffy little Amerucanas. They lay blue green and pink eggs...




















yes, this one is kicking back in Shraddha's hand... SEEE?
