Baby Haybale is growing up so fast! 11 days old. Already so tall! Very active and healthy! Feathers seem to have grown fast! Haybale has had large feet since hatch, not sure if that is a roo indicator or a trait that may be related to size. Wing span is downright impressive. The little one makes attempts to get on the couch and nearly succeeds! If I'm sitting on the floor, Haybale easily gets on my shoulder and up against my neck without any help. She follows me around, she harasses the dog.
I had some serious thoughts on keeping her as a house chicken but seeing her instincts develop makes it easy to see how well she is going to do when she is ready to go outside.
First nice day outside (warm and not wet!) she will get a trip out to see the world and experience grass and dirt and get a glimpse at the flock she will eventually be integrated with.
[The video was meant to be cute, but now I'm paranoid that the little one might have split wing! Hopefully the feathers even out as they grow?]
LOOKIT THEM TAIL FEATHERS!
