The prior flocks have all grown at about the same rate, with the exception of a runt or maybe one or two that were just a bit larger like Zelda. This flock somehow lost the memo that they should all be about the same size. We have like two, maybe three chicks that are dinosaur birds, they are HUGE! They are all losing the fuzz and getting feathers at the same speed and everyone seems healthy and all are getting to the food just fine. I am not sure what happened but these girls look like they are on steroids.
I brought a couple of the babies in the house to take pictures so you could see the difference I am talking about. The sad part is that the big girl kept cowering down so she would not be the big kid. I noticed that all the big ones kind of do that but this one seems to do it the most.
Somehow the two that I brought inside turned into five. The kids kept bringing in "just one more."
This is Jewel, she is Sarah's buddy. She is cute.
Overall the girls are doing really well. They are however running out of room in the baby box so this weekend they will definitely be moving into the teen house. ; )
