Well the cute little fuzz balls have become half feather pin cushions as the chicks are growing quickly. All have sprouted tiny wings and tails, and have spikey hair dos as their heads are more pin feathers than real feathers. One of the Wynadottes is very friendly, in part to a little hand feeding of egg yolks and bread crumbs that they all share. Given the chance she/he would sit on my arm all day checking out buttons, pens, paper, my iphone and anything else I have in my shirt pocket. One of the Araucana is also becoming chummy which I hope they all do before they move outside. That makes it easier to call them together if they're going to out free ranging.
Now, if I could just get the Spring snows to stop long enough to get started on their outdoor hen house, I'd be much happier.
