We are now the proud parents of five chicks; two Barred Rocks, two Black Sex Links, and 1 Buff Orphington. I started out to get four, but the store selling the Barred Rocks would only sell a pair, whatevah!
No names yet. We are considering Greek goddess names, deceased family member names, or jewel names. Chris wants to name them Bob, Harold, Frank, Joe, etc. but I'm not so sure. Pretty silly. There are a couple more photos here and I'm sure there will be a million more soon. Peep!

I dunno, the greek goddess thing is a little weird because Maia is greek "mountain goddess." So it would kinda put her into a grouping with the chickens, ya know?
Maia is one of seven mountain nymphs, also the goddess of spring (yeah, whatever, she was born in winter). Apparently the mother of Hermes (by Zeus) as well. But you have a point. I forgot to mention that flower names were in consideration and I'm actually leaning toward those. Poppy in particular, for the Buff Orphington. Who knows though. They are so stinkin' cute, except for the poop on their butts :)
How adorable! I hope you'll share some more pics of them as they grow. It looks like a lot of fun, a great learning experience, and a very nice addition to the household.
Ooo, ooo! Daphne, Daisy, Rose, Jasmine, uhh... What else?
Lily, Iris, Chrysanthemum (heheh)
So what's the deal? Do the girls have names yet?
