Sorry I haven't posted in a long time. The chickens are doing just fine. They are now 5 weeks old. I have also named each one. The 4 Rhode Island Reds are named June, Clementine, Matilda, and Chloe. The 2 Delawares are named Sabrina and Amelia. Amelia was actually the first one to fly. That is the reason I named her Amelia. Sabrina actually means legendary English princess. The reason behind that name is she is at the top of the "pecking order" I'm sure because she is
                                                          1. Bigger than the rest
                                                          2. She is always the first one to jump out of her cage.
Yep we had to borrow a huge dog crate to put the chickens in because they kept flying over their feeder and they needed more space. The chickens have now out grown the cage. Soon I will be putting them into their chicken coop. My neighbor helped me build a chicken coop from a kit since I am not very handy with tools as much. It looks small but I'm sure it will be enough space a least according to all the chicken handbooks. I will be posting pictures soon. :-)
