New chicks

Here are some pictures of our new baby chicks. They are about 2-3 days old here. The black ones with the dot on their head are Barred Rocks. The rest are Erin's Bantams and will be little even when grown! She got Silkies and Frizzles this time. Can't wait to see what they look like when they get big...

    Too cute! The girls like their serious faces too! Elisa says it reminds her of the chick on the movie HOP. :)
