Chicks from a Friend

Baby chicks at a few days old.

Chicks from Mrs. Fontana
By: Nora
On July 23, we got 3 more chicks from the Fontana family. We named them Lydia Louise and Teddy. Roger is their dad. Teddy and Lydia's mom is probably a barred rock. We're not sure who Louise's mom is. They were born in an incubator at Mrs. Fontana's house.
(Note from Mom: Roger is the rooster who we raised at our house and then gave away because we were unable to have roosters.  This was Roger's second batch of hatched chicks.)


Lydia
Louise is in black, with the others at 3 months old.

A small black hen, (the smallest) who
I would say is “curious”.Whenever I dig a
path in the snow, she is always the first
to follow it.


Louise

Louise at 2 months old.
A white and black hen, (my favorite)
who if I hold for a long time, will
follow me EVERYWHERE!


Teddy

Teddy at 2 months old.  He doesn't have his gold feathers yet.
A barred rock rooster with gold.
His noises can be SO funny,
and he himself is cute.
