More Feathers!

I adopted 7 pullets last Thursday, about 6 weeks old. These are Ameracunas and Ameracuna mixed. They should lay greenish eggs, but you never know - we'll see in a couple of months! Meanwhile they are happily living in the pen with a makeshift coup until they are a little bigger and can be put with the "big girls". The Big Girls are fascinated by them and walk up and down the pen fence clucking. Perhaps some maternal instincts? Here are 3 of the "babies", sitting on the frame of the old coop. All 7 were sitting in a row very nicely until I walked over to the pen! They have learned about me being the food provider already!
