I thought I'd give everyone a quick update on the chickens: Yiayia Peeps, Eleni and Mabel.
The girls are now about 3 months old and living in their snazzy coop / run that Kelly has built for them. Along with chicken feed and an occasional dried grub, they're contentedly scratching away for all sorts of creepy crawlies under the giant pine.
They've feathered out - Eleni and Yiayia brownish with gray and black accents respectively, while Mabel is stunning in white and black.
We've also learned the axiom "go to bed with the chickens" is rather apt. I don't think 8:00 o'clock has chimed without finding the girls safely tucked in to their nesting area snoring away.
By the way, the boys love to go in the coop to hang with the chickens, and the chickens seem to enjoy the boys' company as well!
