After our last trip to the St. Louis zoo, the kids were really begging for some flippery friends in tuxedos, but I held firm. Or, I thought I did. Then our Black Copper Marans chicks showed up today, and I wondered if they’d somehow slipped their penguin chicks past me!
This guy is still deciding who he is. What do you think?
These being penguin chicks would explain why the post office had such a hard time delivering them–and why the chicks were so exhausted from their journey! But I don’t smell anything ‘fishy’, so I’m going to assume everything is aboveboard and I’ve just got the cutest little Marans chicks known to man!
In fact, I’m thinking I’ve got the lion’s share of fabulous fowl and sensational silkies, too. I mean, really, what’s not to love in a face like this?
So, I’ve decided to give them their own page, or pages, on the blog. Aside from how much easier this will make selling chicks and birds, chickens play a role in most my books. In fact, they’re the stars of the show in my latest as-yet-to-be-revealed middle grade. It’s time to give them their own page! That way those of you who come here for all things chickens and guineas will have info and pics collected in one place. And the rest of you won’t have to be quite so patient with my endless supply of chick pics. 😉
Look for updates to the blog soon, and in the meantime, cross your fingers that our ‘penguin chicks’ put a stop to any talk in this family about getting a zoo license!
