Oh my... they are so cute I could die!

And what a great mommy you have! The four little fuzzy butts sticking up in the air? Forget about it... that is the cutest ever!

OK-you have very,very,very cute chickens-no doubt about it.

But one question-did you train them to use a litter box, or did you photoshop all poo out of pics?

I mean, I have some pretty good pics of my chicks but inevitably there is a big gob of poo in the foreground!Ugh!

How did you do it?!

Ditto the comments on the photography. Absolutley fabulous job! And what a bunch of cuties. Makes me want to smooch the screen...

I used a Canon EOS 400D, but I believe it has a different name in America. I can only recommend it, great camera!

Beautiful birds!! I am guessing that Polka Dots and Racing Stripes' mother is the Red hen, Mellow Yellow's mother is the white hen, and Peppy Normal's mother could be either or.....

That's exactely what I think as well!

The white mother has one feather (which you can't see, it's somewhere in her left wing) with a black stripe on it, so Peppy could indeed be her daughter, since she has white "highlights" but one black spot as well.

Lol, they're not litter trained and I definitely didn't photoshop the pictures...

I'll try to make a picture of their "home and yard" later. I guess it just all spreads, because I never see a lot of poo...

And their are only four of them of course, still small as well..

Beautiful! Well done. Happy, healthy looking babies too.

I took a quick picture of their playpen. I know it looks kinda shabby but hey, they're having loads of fun on the bricks and twigs!

(and it keeps them in, in the end that's all that matters

)

No poopies to be seen!

I guess they just dry very quick and disappear under the sand...

I love the shots of the mother with chicks. Beautiful pics!
