Meet the Cluckers!

The girls hatched two weeks ago, and I took these images last week, but due to technical difficulties (I have difficulties with anything technical), they are only now here for you to get clucky over!
Clockwise from top right, we have Lakhi, Maya, Jaya and Lalita.
Lakhi and Maya are Rhode Island Reds. At the moment they are distinguisable as Lakhi is the "blonder" of the two, and has "lipstick" on (a red spot on her beak). She is also slightly less aware of risks than her sisters, as was her namesake. Maya is very protective of her sisters, and cheeps very loudly when she's separated from them.
Lalita, like the Bollywood goddess who plays her, Aishwarya Rai, is bold, stunning and exotic, with full dark lips (a black beak) and gorgeous big eyes. She and her more nervous sister Jaya are Australorps. They will become big, black chooks with a greenish sheen in their plumage.
We named them on the first day we had them, but it's amazing to see how their personalities are similar to their namesakes.
