Big Bird checks out the bantam chicks

It’s crazy to see just how big Big Bird is compared to the itty bitty bantam chicks!

Our bantam Little Big Bird!

She reminds me of BigBird because of that wise look she gives when she gazes up at us from in the crate. She’s the biggest of the Bantam Chicks, and the first to show us that indeed, she can fly when she was out for her photo shoot and flew…

Grey – Our Bantam Chick

Butterscotch our isa brown

Enjoy some closeups of raspberries on a tree with Butterscotch, our isa brown chick posing for some close up pics…

Red, our Rhode Island Red & Raspberries

Red was pretty interested in the raspberries, and posed for some great close ups at the same time!

Lady Elaine and Esther enjoy the Raspberry Tree

The chicks tried raspberries for the first time. Instead of just putting them in a dish – onto the faux tree they went. Some were a bit more interested in the tree than the berries, these two being more interested in the tree and what else was going on for…
