The chicks are a week old today, so it’s a good time for an update.
Cutest picture ever. I told my daughter she should enter this in the TCYS contest next year.
The chicks now go out with their mommas every day foraging.
Shirley with chick
We were worried at first, but the mommas are so protective. One of them actually attacked one of the ducks that got too close to her chicks yesterday.
Fancy with chicks
They can’t get back up the ramp, so we help the chicks back into the coop at night.
Priscilla’s chicks
Originally Fancy had 3 chicks and Priscilla had 2, but maybe Fancy realized that 3 were just too many to handle. She gave one of the chicks to Priscilla. The chick she gave away also looked very similar to Priscilla’s chick, so maybe it was easier than trying to figure out whose was whose.
Look at the fuzzy feet on this pure bred brahma
I added in this photo, just because I have no idea how my daughter managed to get our rooster to look like a lobster.

Many of the photos were taken by my daughter, Aspen.
