The evening ritual...



The top photo shows Nora, Madelyn, Anastasia and Piglet.  The middle chick on my shoulder is Milk, who's the self-appointed Head Chicken, and that's why she's not in the second photo.  She tends to sit up higher than everyone else, looking down on her kingdom.  As they say, there really is a pecking order.  And the bottom chick is Madelyn, really the sweetest of them all.  She'll sit in my lap, letting me put my hands around her as she snuggles in.  They'll even go to sleep in your hands doing that.  Talk about laid back.  And while they've grown quite a bit since we got them (3 weeks ago this coming Monday), they're still pretty small.
