Sowed some chickpeas by accident!

Hi greenfingered chums :wave:
I was rinsing off some soaked chickpeas and some fell into a pot with geranium on my kitchen windowsill. I decided to leave them there as an experiment and one has started sprouting in the compost. I'm just wondering if I could actually grow chickepea plants now ... has anyone tried this?

Trying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far! 
Sorry if I don't reply to posts - I'm having MAJOR trouble keeping up these days!

You have a great username, gave me a smile!
I guess I'll still have to shop for chickpeas but like you say, I think this could be fun! Trying to spend less time on MSE so I can get more done ... it's not going great so far!
