Don't Count Your Chickens...

Yep, we have chickens now. Septtro has been wanting them for a very long time now so I finally decided we should give it a shot. We got them Sunday afternoon and already had two eggs yesterday (haven't checked today). We'll be getting a rooster soon.

I must say, the idea is growing on me. I know Ri will have fun feeding them and collecting the eggs when she's older.

Suka is obsessed with them. Whenever I let her outside, she immediately runs over there and stays there. I'm not sure if it's because she wants to be their friend or if she wants to eat them - but I don't intend to try to find out so we're gonna make Suka keep her distance when we finally let them wander around the yard for a while when we're out there with them.

Two of the chickens are 5 months old - just like Ri - and two of them are 10 months old - just like Mur, my nephew. Septtro said we could name two of them after the babies and those two would receive a 'pardon'. :) What do you think we should name them?
