    Betty, or as she has earned this past week, "Betty the Brave". She has gained a lot of confidence and does not shy away from the bigger chicks, and they don't mind her either. I even watched her steal away a worm from the big chicks and hold her own. Yum! 4 weeks:

    Betty at 3 weeks old today. She is such a lover. We really enjoy having her be a part of our little flock of chicks. She is sweet, smart, and friendly.

    Little Betty is 2 weeks old now... She is seriously the sweetest. Between her and my Light Brahma chick, we always have one who we know welcomes a snuggle. She usually relaxes down into my hand, but right before these pics I had thrown down some meal worms, so she was anxious to go scratch...

    Meet Betty! She is seriously the CUTEST! We only got her yesterday (the store only had broilers because their shipments were late), brought her home immediately, introduced her to the 3 others, and she fit right in! It couldn't have gone smoother. She actually would crawl up...

    Hahaha! I think specifically they are an assortment of cochins, brahmas, d'uccles, and silkies. We had a Partridge Cochin Bantam before that didn't make it.
