Chicken Update

Here are the peeps at a bit over a week old. Don't worry, the one in the background leaning against the thermometer with her head in an impossible position, is only sleeping. We have moved them from a cardbord box to a large Rubbermaid tub and put them on pine bedding instead of paper towels. They've mostly grown out of the chicken narcolepsy that caused them to keel over into sleep in the middle of activity. They are starting to develop "big chick girl" habits such as scratching in the bedding and flapping their newly developing wing feathers.
