Chickens, Part Two

The girls are coming into their third summer, and it was decided that it was time to start a batch of chickens to eventually replace them.

Just to keep things interesting, we have taken a chance and gotten two Sebright chickens.  We picked up one silver and one golden, and we are keeping our fingers crossed that they are hens and not roosters.

The other two are golden buff sex link pullets.  

It's been entertaining to watch them, as the little ones have adopted the smaller of the two sex links to be their "mother," cuddling up to her when they all collapse in a heap to sleep.  The bigger of the two acts like a teenager who doesn't want to be seen around her younger siblings.
