A week and a half pasted and my mom and I wanted to fill the coop. The coop we got from the Easter Bunny could hold up to 12 chicks. So my dad and I went on an errand and because I was so good, my dad brought me to Agway to look at Ashely's chicks. I'll tell you more about her later. My dad and I picked out two new chicks. One was a polish, yes I said polish, and one was a black bantam.
Not wanting to miss out on an opportunity, and knowing Ashley at Agway was having a "Chicken Day" event at the shop, my mom and I thought, "...we better get another 4 chicks to even things out." So the next day, my mom picked up a white silkie, a partridge silkie, a black cochin, and a silver lace cochin.

| They could fly of their box at this point... |

| These are the 6 new chicks we picked up to fill up the coop. |
 |
| We made a cover to protect the new chicks in case the older chicks tried to fly out of their box to explore. |

| What a set up...food, water, heat lamp and shavings...Living Large! |
