Here they are! They hatched on Valentines day and I received them in the mail from chickensforbackyards.com on Friday morning. I live in an urban setting with a backyard coop so I ordered 5, thinking I would be alright with 3 or 4 if some didn't survive the February shipping. Well, they sent two extras and they are all healthy so now I have 7. (Oh no...What a disaster... 9.9)
I finally settled on names and took pictures of each of them to share!

This one is Elsa. She is the only Silver Laced Wyandotte and my niece's favorite. She is relatively calm and easy to handle, so I'm trying to make sure she stays nice and friendly for my niece.

And this one is Anna, Easter Egger #1.

Next is Belle. She is by far the calmest and friendliest. She was the first to hop up onto my hand on her own. Easter Egger #2

This is Kida, looks like Belle but darker grey. She hates being separated from the rest and here she is yelling at me about it. Easter Egger #3

Nala is Easter Egger #4. She is also pretty calm and friendly. Definitely has the biggest cheeks.

Last but not least, 2 Welsummers, Lilo and Moana. I think one has sliiiightly darker feathers coming in. But mostly I can't tell them apart.


Did you all figure out my name theme? :)
