Remember the adorable fluffy chicks that hatched at the Merritt Library? Ros, our chicken-mom, kindly took some pictures so we can see how much they’ve grown. They’ve been doing well at home!
The chicks have grown quite a bit since they hatched at the library. They’ve now reaching the awkward teen stage – but we still think they’re pretty adorable. They’re enjoying being with their family, and are well on their way to becoming beautiful egg-laying hens.
You might remember that we predicted the chicks would be a mix of Ameraucana, Copper Maran, and Houdans. We were mostly right! And, after carefully assessing the flood of entries we received for the naming contest, Ros assigned names based on the personality of each hen. Here they are! Lynx, Sunny, Tedward, Peep, and KeeKee.
