three new chicks! couldn't resist these little silkies. The bigger bantam was in their brood box and they think she must be mom!
little miss poopy butt is looking very alert. Al's favorite - hoping shes a hen.
lots of feathering out on the buff orpingtons.
Barred rock going round and round.
Everyone needs a mom.
