Baby Chicks!



While visiting a friend recently, she took me to her barn...and to the informal 'hospital' she has set up for her chickens. It's a separate room and exercise yard where injured chickens are kept until they are sufficiently recovered to join the main chicken population. 
I noticed this hen was particularly fluffy...I've seen her in the yard and she's usually much smaller.



 
So, I took a closer look and noticed she has some extra feet under her...very tiny little feet...

chicks!










Here are a few more cute little ones...these remind me of penguin chicks.




So cute!
