The Chicks are 2-1/2 Weeks Old Already

Today David decided to let the chicks get a view of what will be their home in another couple of weeks. They seemed to LOVE being out of their box.










Here is a close-up shot of them. We've had some posterior issues (I'll spare you the gory details), but so far all 18 are still with us! To us they seem at least twice as big as when I brought them home two weeks ago. LOTS of feathers - especially on their wings and tails. Some are quite fiesty - we think the redder ones are the roosters. They are starting to develop little combs!

Following is a little video of them running around their "yard"! Enjoy and stop by soon if you want to see them while they are small!
