Well my little babies are now sleeping outside in their coop every night - I'm not liking it - I miss the little peeping noises they would make, chicken snoring I guess you could call it. Amy at work suggested I get a baby monitor, and I think I'm going to try it. The boys have spent the last 2 nights outside with them, although I doubt it is to lend moral support, more like maybe we can sneak up on them while they're out cold.
This is a picture of them at 3 wks old taking a group dirt bath. What a hoot that is! They all want to be as close to each other as possible while they scratch and lay and fluff in the dirt, and the noises they make, it is a real event.
This is baby Lola taking a little nap on moms lap, covered with the hem of her pajama top so she stays warm and cozy. She is so sweet.
Here is the most recent picture of the girls, they came to work with me, and really liked being perched on my in/out baskets. They were very quiet and I could feel all those little eyes on my back as I typed....
Mom came and picked them up after lunch and took them home so they could have some yard time. It's been very hot out in the afternoons so they are getting a wedge of watermelon everyday, and I brought them inside on Sunday to have a bit of air conditioning because poor petal was laying on her side panting! I need to get them some electrolytes to put in their water-chicken gator-aid!
