Have a mentioned that our chickens are really tame? Big sister A and brother M have been (making a huge mess) feeding them by hand and enjoying getting gently pecked.
The girls are getting close to full grown now (still about 3 weeks to go though). Their combs are still coming up and they are losing some baby feathers as new ones come in. They are still not scratching up the turf much. We have been feeding them grubs and slugs from the garden in hopes that they will learn to relish them enough to find lots in our grass this summer. They won't start laying until August (5 months old)
Baby S is much more into trying to pet the chickens then actually petting them.
