Last week she child brought two brand newly hatched chickens home. It took a couple days for them to adjust and now they have gotten used to their indoor habitat and they seem to be adjusting well.
My nephew named them Sunshine and Moon. I can't remember which one is which. But the yellow one had something called spraddle leg when it came home, and for about the first three days had a bandaid around its legs to keep him upright and teach him how to control both legs. It seems to have helped.
I just thought I'd share a picture. @EvaJames , what tips do you have to new chicken parents lol.

Those are cute-looking chickens. They make good pets.

@thislittlepennyearns I doubt you'll ever house-train them!

@JudyEv Oh I dont think they need to be house trained. I just wish everytime I touched one of them it would stop pooping

I hope they live a good long time. They are pretty sweet, but they poop all over.
