Our chicks arrive!





With names such as "Alicia" and "Sally", these chicks are bound to be girly girls!  They are soft and fluffy, and oh SO cute.

Someone said recently, "They'll be tame so long as they get plenty of handling in the early weeks."   Hmmmm.  If that's true, these will be the tamest chickens in town.  :)

___________________________________________________________
Editor's update..............  We had a big naming discussion at the breakfast table this morning, and we all decided to name the chicks after flowers.  "Alicia" and "Sally" have been replaced by "Rose" (Elijah's) and "Tulip" (Saraya's); Stuart decided on "Iris" and mine is "Jasmine".  We cast a vote for Will's and came up with "Lavender".   So, we don't really know which is which as they're all very similar, but at least they are named. :)  Doing well; survived the first night!!

How cute!! You're going to have so much fun having chickens!
Bet they are the tamest chicks ever!
We have a hen sitting on some eggs at the moment, so I'm expecting chicks in a week or so as well!
