Chicks in da House

One of my big concerns with getting chickens is how our other animals would react to them. We've got 2 dogs and a cat (and a snake and some fish, but I wasn't too worried about them). Darrel said "It'll be fine." He says that whenever I express worry about anything. It'll always be fine.

So far, it's been fine. Jack (our border-collie mix) sniffs them a bit, then seems a bit freaked out and leaves quickly. Carmella (our cat) seemed more interested in the box than in the chicks. Rose (our poodle-maltese mix) is the only animal that shows any real interest. She will sit and watch them for minutes at a time, even when no one else is around their box. They've gotten pretty used to her too.

Below are some chicken/dog videos for your viewing pleasure.

I like how that one chick came up to her to say hi. Cute!
