On the second day the three chicks were outside, there was a jailbreak. When I got home to two Egyptian Fayoumis, Barb and Donna, were running around panicking and Linda, the Black Minorca, was by the back door dead. :-(
Obviously, we're going to have to beef up security.

2017 chicks
I have Frizzles on order again through Houle's, like last year. They are supposed to be in on May 19.
But I saw via Twin Cities Chickens that True Cost Farm had some Egyptian Fayoumis and Black Minorcas available. They were two weeks old, and I got three.
What a difference between day-old and two-week-old chicks, though. These chicks are so flighty. It may be the breed. It may be lack of bonding when they were tiny. Anyways, they're breeds I've never had, so I'm excited to have them. Since they're exotic breeds, I decided to give them plain names.
So, here are Donna, Barb and Linda enjoying their first day in the sun and their first worms.
