CHICKIE BABIES

"We can see a thousand miracles
 around us every day. What is more
 supernatural than an egg yolk
 turning into a chicken?"

~ S. Parkes Cadman



Exactly twenty one days-
eight eggs hatched-
four Rhode Island Red-
four Araucana.
We are now picking names-

Duckie
Ann Baxter
Joan Crawford
Greta Garbo
Billie Burke

Still three to go!
Want to help?...
Please!
I am keeping postive
thoughts that all eight
are hens! xx

    I gasped when I saw the hatchling!! So cute and amazing to watch. How wonderful!! The names are awesome. I like Dolly Parton, Lady Diana, and Priscilla Pressley, those might send good messages to the universe about wanting lovely ladies!!

    Oh wow! What I wouldn't give to watch babies hatch. So incredible. Hmmm...hen names? How about Virginia Woolf, Jane Austen or Emily/Charlotte Bronte?

    Oh how cute! We are terrible with names here.. Feathers, Fluffy, Snow (for a white one)..that is as good as it gets here! We make fun of ourselves all the time about being horrible namers! GREAT job and I hope that all are hens!

    Hurray! Love the names. We already used Sally Hennypenny but how about Beatrix Potter?

    No good ideas on the names, but I love the picture of the little one resting on the newspaper that says "hamming it up". So cute!
