Italian Chicks

Donatella, Isabella, Francesca and Giovanna (Bitty)
our chickens, our ladies - little fuzz balls who stared into corners of their plastic cage under the brooder lamp - now fully social and owning the worms and bugs in the backyard. They travel together, roost together, dirt baths together and share Apache's hay together. The hay that was once shared with sweet ole beauregard! Poor Apache has another invader - 4 little invaders - to his evening meal.
These are going to be good eggs!
