The chicks are starting to acquire names. I don't know how this happened, but as of today, several of the chicks have been spontaneously christened.
There's Freebie, of course, aptly named because she came out of a leftover chick bin. Then there's Little Red, the adorable Ameracauna chick who is the sweetest of the bunch. Runt is the pathetic name given to the tiny Black Star chick who lost some of her feathers on the way out of her egg. Then there's Chipmunk - another Ameracauna, and Turken Lurken the Naked-Neck chick.
I'm sure by the end of the week, each one will have earned a name. As of right now, I am very very glad that these aren't meat birds!
