Chaparral munching moss from one of the branches until Ribzy begins to eye the same salad bits.

Nope!

Chaparral prefers to dine alone.

Chick update: We have Chicknames, (which may alter as they get older.) :D

Racer, the Bantam that began all of this. 15 days old now. She quick!

Ginger Marshmellow

the Olive Eggers

Ash Stripe

the Blue Eggers

the Eggers are all 13 days in these photos. In 13 days they have gone from cute, sweet little balls of fluff to food fighting maniacs who love to utterly destroy their habitat as fast as you attempt to clean it.

Feathers coming in, floof going out. They are in their "ugly" tweens. These were taken on their first day out in the little chicken run.

Chaparral and Thumper checking out the new space.

It comes with moss branches.

Chaparral begins to plan how to get rid of Thump so she can have the tasty bits to herself.
