Thanks for the update!

 

[Nixon's Chicks]

One last update!

I found a wonderful home for my Delaware Roo, with a friend of a friend.
And he continues to be friendly and sit on people's laps.
The Silver Spangled Hamburg is a Roo as well, and he is staying with us as he is a nice guy and doesn't cause any issues.
I've heard him crow once in 5 months.
As he is the smallest breed we have, I don't have to worry about him hurting our girls.

The rest of the ladies, I must say, are the friendliest chickens we have ever had!
What started all this, was a white Jersey Giant, who would jump on my arm when I leaned down in the pen.
Her name is Aurora.
From there, I decided that I needed a chair to sit with the chicks.
And then the majority of them, started jumping on my lap.
I think some of this comes from me working from home for most of the summer and taking the time to go sit with them daily.
But some of it has to do with personality. And this group is full of that.

We were planning on finding good homes for most of them.
But when they come up to sit on your lap to hang out, they need to stay.
So, we have lots of ladies.
We are keeping 12 of the 22 chicks that we received in June.
And I believe they are even having an impact on the older ladies in the pen.
Somehow, I am now more interesting, even though I don't walk in with food.
Everyone is more curious.
