The Exodus

Welcome to the very beginning. The exodus. I hope you can enjoy going along the journey that is the chick's lives with us, and learn new and exciting things along the way! Wow. Am I sounding cheesy or what??? 

Anyway, I just wanted to explain that our family has bought four baby chicks recently and we are hoping other people will enjoy reading about them. 

It's amazing. On my first day of meeting them, I can already tell them apart. So let me start by introducing you to them. The chick's have not recieved names yet, so until further notice, the chick seen in this picture is known as "CHICK ONE" or "THE LITTLE ITSY BITSY TEENY WEENY RUNT THAT IS MOST DEFINETLY THE CUTEST CHICK ON EARTH." We will just refer to her for now as Chick One for obvious reasons. 

CHICK ONE SUMMARY

This little runt always happens to look like it is smiling. She has huge yellow cheeks, (as you can see) that lift up the bottom part of her eyes to make it appear as if she is always smiling at you. Chick One has been nominated by another member of our family as the favorite, although she is not my favorite. I will tell you about my favorite later. 

CHICK TWO SUMMARY

The fatso. This chick is funny. She is the biggest of everyone, and always sits in the food. We are hoping Chick Two is not a rooster, because we do not want to fertilize the eggs. You will see pictures of Chick Two in later posts.

CHICK THREE SUMMARY 

I would not want to be this little chick! She always looks like she is frowning, or furrowing her eyebrows. She also has an extremely long neck, and is very vocal. I picked her up and instantly she started peeping like crazy!

CHICK FOUR SUMMARY

This chick is the snuggle bug of the family, which is probobly why she is my favorite. Whenever she realizes she is sleeping on her own, she will run over to another chick and lay down next to them, no matter what is in her way, be it the food container or another napping chick! Her markings make her seem almost wise in a way, and as if she is confident in whatever she so desires to do.
