Daily activities for the Chicks

All is well in the chicken pool. They are 3 weeks old now and have more than half their feathers. We cleaned out the old litter in the pool because they were starting to have an unpleasant fragrance. They were not happy with me when I got in the pool and started removing the old shavings, but they were very excited to have clean shavings to mess around in. I have included some pictures of them eating and drinking. They are really fun to watch.

Learning to perch

You will see in this photo that some of the chicks are starting to perch on the stool legs. How do they know to do that? Just a chicken thing I guess. The one in the front is one of the bolder chicks. She says "you lookin' at me?" I tell you this is a carnival.
