Sweet Cheeks

The new girls, Betsy, Dolly and Martha are growing up fast. They are mingling with the big girls now, but still give the right-of-way when necessary.  They have ventured out to the yard a time or two, but I've had to pick them up to take them back upstairs where they live, since I was afraid they would get caught out after dark and not know how to "go home" yet.  They are developing their little fluffy cheek feathers, which are so darn cute  Here is Dolly:

Aren't they too cute??  These girls will be my blue egg layers. I'm so excited. Not sure we'll get the henitentiary built this summer, with so much going on....again, but they seem to be doing ok yet in their little brick chick house.  Bok, bok, and
