Then something special happened on April 4. I decided to get her a little piece of bread. The sight of the twist tie excited her so that I was afraid I would drop her, so I put her down. She grabbed the twist tie and RAN! She was playing the Keep Away from my Worm" game. She played with it and flicked it off the table. Thankfully, she didn't try to get it. She is not up to par with her sisters yet, but she is definitely progressing.
After she ate and exercised, she would rest on my chest. Then she started improving. She was standing longer. frequently standing with one foot on top of the other. I started having visitations with her sisters. She did fine so I left her there for them to inspire movement. She tried to walk to me taking only a couple of steps, but she kept stepping on her own feet. I practiced walking her. The next day she took 5-7 steps several times to reach me and try to get on me. She was much improved.
Since we only had one Delaware, it was easy to tell her from the others. She earned the name Diva Della. The others looked just alike so it took some time to pick out names for them and even then I am not sure who is who.

Here's Diva Della looking at you!
Diva Della may look dead, but she is only sleeping.
The chicks took a few days vacation in Texas while we were looking for a house to move too. They rode in their box with water and food. They were very well behaved clucking and chirping very softly. When we came back, I needed to take Diva Della's weekly picture. I picked her up, she flapped her wings and crawled to my shoulder. I tried to get her, but she moved to my back. I ended up going into the house to get my husband's help to get Diva Della off my back. I have decided maybe she is a little too big and active for little visitations and in-house photo opts. We have had a few warm days so I have taken all of them out to the Run to play and do what chickens do. They LOVED it!
