Have you ever seen how baby chicks take naps?  It’s very funny.  They tip forward on their little chins and pass out.  I kept thinking the chickies were dead, but when I touched one it would pop right up and start running.  I took this photo when they first came home.  This is Lucille (Lucy) looking like a fall down drunk.  I just LOVE LUCY!

I’ve renamed the chicks.  I will share their names and breed types here soon.

  1. it looks so comfortable and sleepy. What a cutie. How many chickies did you get? How long do they live? I would love a “flock?” …. I am a farm girl at heart.

  2. I bought 4 chicks, and I hope they’re all hens (10% chance two are roosters, so not likely, but still…). I believe they can live for 8-10 years.

    They’re growing very fast, so I need to get going on a coop!
    I’m a farm girl too :)

  3. I LOVE LUCY! This is so cute!

  4. Your little Lucy is a doll :) I want to see a picture of what they look like now, and how much they have grown. Come on, Auntie wants to see the new baby pictures!

  5. You will be surprised. When are we having lunch?

  6. melissa, see what you have to look forward to?
