My Little Chickadee

Sometimes I get excited about something and make rash decisions, or at least decisions that I wish I would have thought about a little longer before pulling the trigger.

This is one of them: Saturday Kelly and I were running errands, and we stopped off at IFA just to look at the new chickens. Yeah, you guessed it, we have three new chicks keeping warm and filling out in the laundry room.

They're a different breed from Eleni, Yiayia Peeps and Mabel 2, however. These girls are Maran chickens, which mean they'll lay a dark burgundy / chocolate brown-colored egg.



But these new birds do share something with their older sisters: the boys choose distinctly un-farm-like names!
