people with house chickens

Aww

they are so cute!

Chicks are amazingly adorable but they certainly grow VERY fast!

At 4 days old these chicks were nothing but fluff & fuzz:

In the next 12 days the little fuzz-butts already grew in juvenile wing feathers!

And then they turn into dinosaurs -- half fuzz, half juvenile feathers!

This trio isn't even 6 weeks old yet and don't look much like babies any more!

Chicks grow so-o-oo fast!!! They do a lot of fast growing and need good supplementation like avian vitamins added to their chick feed. We started all our babies on organic feed and even organic produce as treats. Hey, we eat their eggs so what goes into their bodies eventually goes into our bodies so they get fed the best LOL!
