We've got ourselves six little chicken nuggets. They have survived two days and two nights with us. They are getting lots and lots of love. They have been given names.
Oldest son named his Mary Elena
Second son named his Berk
Oldest daughter named hers Fluffette
Youngest son named his Frosty
Youngest daughter named hers Rosalinda
I picked the final name and it is Nugget
They are almost impossible to tell them apart, but Berk does have a different pattern on her back that makes her a little easier to distinguish. My husband attempted to 'mark' the chicks by dyeing two of them. Frosty has some blue in his wings and Rosalinda is pink. You can kind of see them in the pictures. I just call them all Nugget.
I was getting ready to clean out their stinky bucket when I took this picture. They didn't like the box I had for them....
They live in a bucket in the bathtub and will live there until they are big enough to be outside. I've never dealt with chickens before, so I don't know how long that will take. Three weeks, maybe?? Until then, they are super cute and oh so fluffy!!!
