Nothing cuter than chicks.

Sussex chicks sunbathing

I caught and shared grasshoppers with both flocks this afternoon. None of the broodies shared with their chicks...it's time for the chicks to become independent from momma.

Fuzzi are you having an extra humid summer in NC? It sure has been a heavy one in MI and I am curious to know if you’re getting anything out of the ordinary there. The chicks look happy about their suntime, humidity or no!

It feels like it, although we went for weeks without any measurable rainfall. It stayed humid even then. There are mushrooms growing everywhere, even in town and next to busy streets.

So, yes.

Thank you!

I might have a home secured for the extra boys, though I will probably keep one. Since adult plumage won't be apparent for months it will be whoever gets along best with Poppa Zack.
