Cluck, Cluck

My niece has nine chickens! She even hatched two of them herself with an incubator that she bought with her allowance money. When I was in the D.C. area last week, I got to play with these little birdies myself... They are pretty cute. Well, all of them except for the rooster (above). The chickens will have a custom-made coop where they can lay their eggs and roam the backyard freely...

 This little yellow chick is Star... She's my favorite!
