Princess and Chick-a-Dee will eat out of your hands

Mia with Princess. She asks over and over "Where's MINE?" She can't tell them apart yet.

It was a gorgeous day and the chicks first time outside.

We are hoping to be able to eat their eggs and that they will control some of the bugs out back near our garden! The kids LOVE them and it has been really fun watching them grow. We got them at about 3 weeks old and the are starting to lose their fuzz and grow feathers! Once it's warm they'll live in their coop out back. For now they're in a box in the garage with a lamp on them 24/7. (They started out in our living room but the dust and feather fuzz in the air was too much for me!)
