chicks, outdated

So we've been busy ramping up for the fall and cleaning up around the house, as well as watching the DNC, so I haven't had a chance to post these pics taken on August 16th. I love the way they hop up on her back to snuggle or preen.

Chit chat at the water cooler




This is our youngest chick, and smallest as well. Luna has it in for her, and sometimes will peck or chase her away from the rest. Moxie, as I like to call her, (tho usually we call her Little Tinky since she's the smaller of Tinkerbelle's two offspring in the brood) squeaks and runs away, trying to hide behind Big Tinky (aka Prima, or the first to hatch of the batch).
Prima shows off her profile.

Roo-watch update: The little lighter grey guy on the left has redder and more pronounced wattles...
