Pic's of my SPOILED Bantams

[ChickensInTheNorthWoods]

Well, I have finally determined that my bantams are Dark Cornish and they are very friendly. The pullet follows me around like I a duckling follows its mommy!

The best part is my son (who being a young boy likes to move around a lot) has developed a great relationship with them and they run to him and sit on his lap every chance they get.

Here are a few pic's of "Chip & Dale" playing on the deck with my son and dogs.

I can't wait until their new coop/run is built so that they can be outside when were not home (currently in a large brooder by the kitchen sliding glass door). My daughter is very attached to our adult chickens but my son had issues with one of our roosters so I was glad to see him get attached to these two. We are trying to make a run that will go from the 2nd story deck down to ground level and keep their coop up on the deck level so they will remain in close contact with the entire family. Till then they are supervised out in the yard and have the run of the deck which is 50'x 16' the only down fall is having to clean all the poop every other day! Thanfully its been rainy here in New England which has cut down on manual labor.
