Here they are ... the 4 babies. They are adjusting to their new home.. Clay & I clipped their little wings before we moved them into their new home. I have been trying to go out & pick them up daily so they get used to that.. It really helps if they are tame & not afraid of you, in case you need to pick them up later.. I made the mistake before with the older ones and it is quite difficult if I need to gather them up to move them to their coop. So far these babies are doing fine.. There are 7 resident chickens now. It is amazing how big the others seem now.. and I am hoping that no more predators come near these.. We lost two last week to a hawk I think... and that really cut down on my egg production.. getting only 2 eggs a day right now... These new chicks won't start laying until mid July... Keep checking back as I document how they are growing.. Enjoy your day and be safe.
