Chickens and other new stuff


The chicks have arrived! We have Rose and Donna, a Rhode Island Red and Rhode Island Red cross ( any Dr. Who fans out there recognize their namesakes?)and Dolly, an Aracuana who is named after Dolly Parton because of her beautiful blonde feathers. Dolly is the most docile, and Donna is the fiestiest, she has even challenged one of the cats already. I think they are about 3 weeks old, not sure though. I am going to keep them inside until the temps outside are around 70. So hopefully not too long and they can go out in their coop during the day. Dani loves them!! She petted them yesterday, looked up and signed "soft". How cute! Tuffy is driven mad by them, I hope he can get over it soon.
