After we arrived home from our cruise, we were unpacking and enjoying being back in our own home. After several hours, Gabby went into the back yard and found a box on our back porch that said "Welcome Home". Inside were 2 small baby chicks, one a fluffy yellow and one a light brown color. We had no clue where the box came from, but there was a bag of chicken feed left along with the box. They were so cute. The kids loved them and named them Feathers and Picachu. It took us a few days to figure out who left them but we finally got our friends Chris and Teesha to confess the crime. Ha, ha. So, we bought a coop and started raising the chickens. They were broken into life with kids pretty quickly as all the neighbor kids came to play with them. Well, a few months later Feathers started to get a little more aggressive. Then "she" started cock a doodle doo-ing and it turns out Feathers was a rooster. I put that rooster up on a local garage sale site and he was gone the next day. We then went to the feed store and picked up 2 more baby chicks, who the kids named Harold and Minerva Louise. I guess we are for reals chicken people now!
