Look how much the foster chicks have changed recently! Their feathers are just gorgeous, with each one having different features. The chickie that used to be all yellow and fluffy is now a beautiful red rust color with bright yellow legs. The chickie that was the smallest to begin with is still slightly smaller, but that is not the only thing that makes him different! YES! I wrote “HIM!” He has a bright red comb now, is grey and white (all white on his chest!) and tail feathers that are shorter than his sisters.
The third chickie now has fantastic silvery-grey with black flecks coloring on her feathers, and her legs are feathered!!! She also has a dark spot on her beak that none of the others has. The last chickie has mostly red rust colored feathers, but hers have black flecks in them, and her legs are green!!!!
It’s really a great reminder of God’s intricate design and plans for us, isn’t it? He cares for even these unique, individual chickies, and makes them all special…just like He creates and cares for us, but to an even larger extent! It’s awe-inspiring if you really think on it. It makes my heart so glad.
The foster chicks will soon be ready to go home to their farm. What will our next adventure be? I never know what will be hand-delivered in to our laps, so I guess we will just stay tuned!
