These little girls are growing at such a rapid rate that it is astonishing. We have to double there brooding box because they can't go outside until they are past 6 weeks old. Right now they are almost 4 weeks old. The "dinosaur" chick stage is starting. The "big girl" feathers are coming in but they still have some downy around them, making them look like freaks. I have 2 brave girls that like to be held and 2 that want ab-so-fricking-lootly nothing to do with me. They will all eat out of my hands or anyones hands for that matter as they are ALL about food. No wonder because of the shear size growth they go through.
We still haven't named all of them yet, but we do call the 2 brave girls Alpha and Beta and the 1 that is most afraid we named her Daisy Faye Layamesmeggs. We've decided that to 2 sets are twins and they are related as cousins so the last names are McCluck and Layamesmeggs. Say that last one fast and you will get the joke, I thought jake was pretty funny with that one!
