I thought we should name them Bacon and Sausage, but I was out voted (or vetoed). We picked them up tonight and they seem to like their new home. They have been shocked by the electric fence so they are finding the boundaries. They started rooting in the dirt right away and it was fun to hear them grunt. The chickens were very unsure at first but hopefully they will figure out a workable relationship.
Honorable mention: the friend of ours whom Kevin has been helping get started with chickens, needed to get rid of his two roosters so they are new to the farm as well. You can only see one in the picture but they look the same (the whiter one with dark spots). They arrived just yesterday and they seem to fit in alright. Interestingly, they don't crow here (that was an issue for our friend and the reason he had to get rid of them) so I guess our rooster is still king of the yard.
