My favorite chick is a speckled Sussex and her name is Cleopatra. I held her for a long time and I could feel how happy she was in my arms. She was practically dozing off at one point. She is the smallest of the lot and likes to go her own way.
We think that one of the other chicks, named Elizabeth, is actually a rooster. She is growing a red crown and wattles and is bossing everyone around. The question is, should we still call her Elizabeth, or should we change it to Charles?


What a sweet photo! Cleopatra is lucky to have such a caring boy.
