Our little silkie chicks are no longer babies. They have grown and are very "fluffed" out.
Although I am still kicked out of the garage (the van, I mean) because their cage is there, Natalie likes to let them run around the backyard - after Izzy is put away. They actually stay in one area and close to each other. If you separate them, they will chirp loudly until they find each other again and will then quiet down.
This picture is great in showing the little mohawk of feathers they get on the top of their head - both are like that. Natalie is doing a great job taking care of them (with some reminders at times), laying new paper under their cage and giving them fresh food and water.
You can tell when Natalie spends a lot of time with them because they will follow her around and not run away when she goes to pick them up.
Logan likes to chase them, maybe we should put him in the house too, when the chicks are out back.
