I'm sure the chickens will win your wife's heart. They are amazing little creatures. But it would be better if you start by getting small chicks, so she can watch them grow.
 
Hi and :welcome

Glad to have you here!
Chicks are pretty cute. I've known a lot of people who don't like birds, who take a shine to the little peeping fluffballs. :p
It'll be nice for your kids to have the experience of raising chickens too.

Don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have, and enjoy the site. :D
