Meet Carlos

Carlos joined the flock yesterday and Carlos is a female chick - the name is just misleading.  She really enjoys her new perch in the coop as you see her in this picture.  She comes from Auburn from a sweet family with two little boys that will surely be missing their pet.  Carlos was raised with another little chick but unfortunately a dog got this one and Carlos needed a new roommate and this sweet family bought the chicks with the intention of giving them to me when they got older.  So the time has come for Carlos to leave the city and become a country chick.  We have one half grown chicken named Scarlett who was given to us a few weeks back and so Carlos and Scarlett are in the same coop now.  At first Scarlett didn't like Carlos but things are much better and it looks like they will be friends.  Both of them eventually will be integrated into the bigger flock.   To the sweet family who is missing Carlos right now - don't worry - she is doing just fine.
