The Boogaboo Bunch are baby Rhode Island Red mix pullets (or chicks). We were at Tractor Supply today and we decided to add to our family. We have eight baby chicks, guaranteed to be pullets and not roosters.
They are in the chick nursery now, how sweet they are. They are happy to be together and warm under their light and they have little fleece blankets like all our pets do. We will have a coop for them when they are ready and we will chronicle their adventures here on ThriftyFun, as I do all our pets! :)

They are adorable. I will look forward to hearing about their progress.
Here is one of these chicks as I photographed her just today... :)
They grow so fast!

I liked this photo. It reminds me of when I used to draw chickens in elementary school, like little S's with beaks. These are the only ones I have ever seen that really look like those drawings. These girls are really sweet, and they are growing like crazy!

When you are a young chick, bathing in the sun becomes a top priority (at least when you are a chicken). I will be posting many more of the Bugaboo Gang taking sunbaths as they are spending more and more time outdoors. We have had a cold spell, so they are playing under the table in their exercise pen. How funny, the wind blew down the map and the chick took a sun bath on it. How cute. :)
