We Up and Got Chicks. For The Children of Course.


FINE guys.  We can buy these 5 ridiculously cuddly, darling, hilarious, affordable little creatures and take care of them in a small wooden box in our living room.  We can give them water once per day, food once per 3 days and FORCE ourselves to love on them.  Just FINE.  





 Miss Frizzle.  
She will look like the angel below in approximately 6 weeks. Stop it.  Just stop it with sense of humor of the Lord above.   



Chickira 
She's from the same family line as her sister, Miss Frizzle.  But she'll be graced with the majestic look below.  Again.  Stop it.  


 Jozie 
This little lady was Reagan's pick.  She will grow up to have puffy cheeks of pure fluff.  And 5 toes.  She's a prolific brown egg layer.  And she makes me smile.  Not your ordinary backyard chicken.  





Smores 
She'll grow up to be a big girl, speckled in black and white, sporting fuzzy feet.  Her round little backside is my favorite.  



  


Last, but certainly not least is our friend 
Combuskin. (of course it's namesake is a chicken Pokemon)
She is Ry's choice and will lay us some real pretty blue and pink eggs.  The brown stripes on her back are beautiful and she's our biggest girl right now.  Already sproutin' those chicken wings.







As predicted, we've all fallen hard for these little squeakers.  We do understand they can die any time and might develop into cock-a-doodles, but we're loving on them until those things occur and hopefully we'll be able to hold on to the majority into their adulthood.  We're not sure if Enzo is hoping for the same results as he hasn't left his perch next to their box in 48 hours.  We have to force him to go up to bed in fear he might construct a ladder and force his way into their hearts.  Quite literally. 



We'll keep ya up to speed on the development of these cutie patoots.
