Who says Chickens aren't pets?

We've had a few additions to our family this year. 11 Baby hens. Yeah I know what was I thinking. Eggs, that's what I was thinking. Little did I know the kids would fall in love with them.
They chase them and hold them. This is Slater and the boy's I babysit. They like to put them on their heads too, but I don't let them do that very often cause Chicken poo is pretty gross and I don't want it in hair.

They put them in the wagon and haul them around everywhere. Yesterday Dane took them to the neighbors across the street. What dog or cat would let you haul them in a wagon. So it's a new adventure and you can ask me when they start to lay eggs if they are worth it. Right now they are a much easier pet then anything I've had before. Minus the smell.
