So Precious... our new chicks!

Last weekend, we went on a lovely long drive out to Price Edward County to fetch these little ones! They are Bantam chicks - Old English Game, and Cochins. It has been so fun watching them; they are so quirky and cute.

The black & white ones, like these at the front of the crate, are all Cochins. The rest are the Old English Game chicks.

Any little sound has their attention.

The chicks were only 2 weeks old when we got them. In one week, we can already see the more defined feathers growing out, replacing the fluff, and little combs growing on some of their wee noggins.

Some were marked at birth with the green or red on their foreheads so the breeder could tell them apart, but the markings will grow out as they mature.
