YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're right. I thought "she must be nuts" - turns out I am!

AWW big group hug.

LOL they're kinda pretty paper towels, if that counts for anything!

And yeah, I need to get my hands on some marbles... ya know, other than the ones that are supposed to be in my head!!

Here chickie chickie! :

Absolutely adorable! What are the black ones in the group? I received my shipment the other day, got two black ones that look similar to yours but not sure what they are!

Most of them are Black Minorca's a friend ordered, two of them are my Dominiques... gonna have to let them feather out a bit before I can tell them apart!​

My best guess is the Ideal 236 pullets my friend also ordered, as near as I can tell. I have a white Amerucana chick in there too

The chicks are 1 week old today, and are turning into more fun than a barrel of monkeys!

They've discovered what the "treat dish" is, and are pretty much attacking me for it! So far, yogurt, watermelon, grapes, and bananas are a big hit! They're wicked, wicked hand-shy (even with daily handling... I'm not handling the meaties, so they have a fit and everyone else believes them!) so I held out the bits of grape and watermelon this morning... bingo! Even my shy little EE's were after the pieces! SO fun!
