Spring chicken!

We enjoyed a visit from 3 furry friends today! We got to hold tiny chicks, newly hatched 2 days ago. We asked some questions, and found out that they are hens' chicks. We found out that there are 18 altogether and that after 2 more weeks it will be easier to tell if they are boys or girls. The boys' combs will be longer than the girls. We held our hands in a bowl shape so that we did not hold the chicks too tightly.
