I have hatched a three legged chick

Too cool; I like the name Tripod as well. Best wishes for it staying healthy.

Ran home and checked on my 3 legger. He seems to be doing great!

Still have him with a bunch of buddies for warmth and being 4 days old they haven't started the pecking yet. Consensus in my office is Tripod so far. I do love Trinity and Tricera Bottoms is cool...... Triple T. An original name with a story.....What do you think?

What would I take for him??? No idea!

 

[Gypsy07]

Oh man, I just changed my mind... Tricerabottoms is hilarious!

That's just perfect!

 

[obaan1]

I would call it "Trip".

New Pictures:

He is a happy little bird and this evening I noticed that when he peeps he raises his 3rd leg. It is so funny! It does look like a pooper scooper when he walks----ready to catch, but I did see it happen and he actually raises it when he does his business. I wish I knew how to post a video. His picture is making the rounds at Tareleton State University and they are calling him Pooper Scooper---Scooper for short. He does act like he likes the name but the verdict is still out.

Still don't know if I'm going to keep him. I hate to give him up but I work all the time, Accountant

and I am worried that I don't have an ideal place to keep him safe. We have several Coops but try as we may we suffer some losses at times. Don't know if DH will go for a house chicken or not?????

probably not. One thing for sure, I think he's pretty special and I don't see him joining the coops---Haven't run the idea of a new, extra safe coop by the DH yet!

Well we ARE looking for a new addition to our mini-flock....

 

[Sorin]

I have a suggestion for a name! How about Trilo, like Milo but with a Tr?

 

[Funky Feathers]

How much?

He's freakishly adorable. So cute.
