I just got baby chicks for the first time and I'm hoping to have some sweet moments in the future so far I've had the babies fall asleep in my hand, and one has crawl up my arm to perch on my shoulder. Shes gonna be a lap chicken for sure

We are very new to chicks, just got ten day old mix of a dozen hens yesterday, but so far my Queen Claire has fallen asleep while I pet her. Between my boys, husband and niece there was only one left for me to call mine. Thankfully she and I seem to be a perfect match.

I havent been able to pet them much till they start nodding off, and even then only so much. The only one who lets me pet her while wide awake is the welsummer and she watches me do it for a while before shrugging me off by grooming. ;D such sillies!

 

[TwinsLoveChicks]

Cute!

Anyone else?

This is my niece holding Oreo for the first time.

Here's my snuggly girl Claire.

I put some chicks out in the adult pen on a especially cold night. At night when I went to lock up the hens one of the hens had come down from where she usually roosted and was snuggled up with the chicks in the corner.

 

[TwinsLoveChicks]

Aawww! That's really sweet! And I love the name Claire for a chick!

We think we have 9 Barred Rock and she is one of them. We also have three possible Brahmas.
