Chickies, Chickies, Chickies!! Meet the new additions! (Pic heavy!)

TehLizardKing- That's why we called our EE Hooter, because he looked like an OWL!

That's so cool, that you said that!

Pipdzipdnreadytogo- Any more PICTURES?!

 

[pipdzipdnreadytogo]

YESSSS! But I haven't gotten them off my camera yet. The babies enjoyed some birthday 'cake' from the big girls' birthday party, so many of the pictures are of them staring at it like it was going to jump up and get them. I will go get those ready to upload now.

Oh, I can't wait ta seem 'em!

Absolute terror! What a frightening thing to be added to their play area! It was... Chicken birthday 'cake'!

Marama flew out first, spotting the 'cake' and jumping in fright!

She skirted the scary thing, keeping her tail up and a close watch on it to make sure it didn't attack!

Hika Ma and Ihi watched from the brooder, neither willing to come out and face this scary intruder!

Tiwhiri was taken aback by how frightening it was!

Even Rangi was afraid to approach!

"I'll protect you!" Po the little man steps up, keeping a close eye on it!

Huka takes the first bite:

"Hey, this isn't so bad!"

Hika Ma approaches cautiously...

Soon, they decide that it isn't so bad after all!

Huka takes a piece and makes a run for it! Po is in hot pursuit!

Down the hatch! Huka swallows her prize before it can be stolen!

Soon enough, the 'cake' was eaten down quite far! The babies enjoyed their first taste of 'cake'.

Ihi, looking lovely!

Ihi has such a sweet face.

Marama enjoyed some 'towelbathing' once the 'cake' was deemed not scary:

Lookit! Po's face!

And finally, Whiri fluffing it out:

 

[Chickenfan4life]

Haha, great pics! And I love the captions soo much!

 

[TehLizardKing]

Yeah... you have some real cute babes there

PO'S FACE! I've got a broody at the mo, and i'm hoping her chicks will have as much personality as yours!

 

[TehLizardKing]

Will we see some more photos soon? I'm biting my nails in anticipation....

 

[pipdzipdnreadytogo]

As a matter of fact, yes. The babies just had their first outside experience, which ended abruptly when some stray kittens showed up looking for a meal. :/ So not too many pictures, but pictures nonetheless! I am uploading them now.
