Bob, everyone's favorite. She was either my Meal Maker or Leann's adopt me chick from Meyer's Hatchery. They had free shipping on Barred Rocks that week.

Ladybug ready for a nap.

Ellie (Miss Patience)...our littlest and most active one.

Curious Ellie

First day! I only wanted 3 or 4 chicks but we ended up with 8. We were able to select our 4 favorites.
Bob (named by my son) Barred Rock: super friendly, always wants to be held.
Ladybug (also named by my son) Buff Orpington: quiet and gentle, friendly but a bit timid, our independent one.
Ellie (aka Miss Patience) Easter Egger: Personality plus, curious and friendly, bold, active, intelligent, does very well with my son.
Lilly (aka the Bald Eagle one) Easter Egger: Friendly as a chick but more timid now, seems to be the leader

The girls that now live with Mema
Annali (Easter Egger): bold and friendly, one of my favorites but a handful (she would fly up to perch on everyone)
Amelia (Easter Egger): never friendly, curious, flighty, independent
Larry (Buff Orpington): very timid, flighty
Charlotte (Welsummer): she was the only breed of my personal picks (speckled sussex, light brahma and welsummer) that I actually received. Curious but timid, difficult to handle, beautiful.

Lilly (Easter Egger) 7 weeks old
