Meet the Babies!!!

Hi and Welcome back to The Chicken Coop!!
Today I introduce you to three more little ones!!!
I got 2 Buff Orpingtons and 1 Black Star!!
They are so ADORABLE!!!
I could eat them up!!
So here are some pictures of them,

 Miss Ethel,  Feisty,Loud and an eater! Yet sooo adorable. :)
She is a Black Star is 4 days old.
She peeps really loud when you hold her, so we will always know her opinion on things. :) 
My mom picked her out and I have to say she picked well. :)
So take a peek at our lovely little Ethel!




On to the next!!!
Miss Big Bertha a.k.a Bertie,  Big, Sweet.
She is a Buff Orpington and 3-4 days old.
We aren't quite sure of her personality yet.
All we know is she loves the water!!
Like all babies her hobbies are: Eating, Sleeping, Drinking and Pooping. :)
Even if we don't quite know her personality she is such a love!!
So take a peek at Big Bertha ( Bertie )




Last but not least, I give you......
Miss Sybil,
Curious, Adorable and she likes the camera she even posed for J!!! :)
She also is a Buff Orpington and she is 3-4 days old.
When we were at the feed store getting them, I grabbed her first and as soon as she got in the box to bring them home in, she hopped out of the box on to the side of the box!! And for a little chick that's legs are about 2 inches tall that was a great leap of faith!!!
I absolutely LOVE HER!!
So take look at our dear little Sybil!!!


I think this is the cutest chicken picture ever!!
She really likes to pose!!!


Well those are my three more chicks!!
God Bless,

First day Outside!!

Hi and Welcome back to the Chicken Coop!!!
We decided to put the Chickens outside for a little while to see what they thought of it.
I put a couple logs around this one area so that we would have kind of a barrier so that if they did try to get out it would be easier to catch them. It really worked well, and they absolutely LOVED IT!!!
So J took a couple of pictures!!!


At first we decided to put them in the metal ring and see if they liked it,
they liked so we decided to take one out at a time as you can see in the picture above only two chickens are in there because we took Daisy out first.


She started to get lonely and loud so we took out Lorsey too.



We decided we wanted to try three at once so I got Lucy out, and we were thinking she would start running around, and showing how big and brave a chicken she is like she usually does,
but to our surprise she was nervous, and Lorsey our calmest chicken was even doing more then her.
And for the first time I could pick her up and she didn't fight me, she just sat and was like "Okay mom you can hold me" and I loved that!! :) But once she realized that all her peeps were with her  and that she was safe,she was back to normal.
I really like this picture above I smiled at her and she smiled back!!!


Lorsey and Daisy!


Lucy and L's feet!! :)


Lucy and Lorsey.


 
Well I hope you enjoyed the pictures!!!
God bless,

In the playpen!

HI and Welcome back to The Chicken Coop!!

Today I decided that the Misses needed to get out of their box for a little bit. I decided to try and put them in our kitty pool, I laid some towels down in it, and put their food and water in, and put them in.
Once they were in, I got my sister L and we decided to sit in the kitty pool with them.We laid a towel across our legs, and put food on our lap. Right away they started climbing on our laps and eating away.
So J my other sister started taking some pictures of us.
So here they are!


Here is me in the middle, L on the right and R (my little brother) on the left.
And chickens climbing all over us!! 


Me feeding Lou.
