cuties!

Penelope and Milly, my Orpington hens, with their 5 chicks (2 weeks old):

I love pullets. They are so adorable when they are at that age! What breed do you have? Have you raised them since they were chicks? I have 5 adult Orpington hens and 5 chicks (which are 1 week old). Hi there Animal Madd!

How lovely. I'm not sure if your Isa Brown will retain those beautiful feather colours when she grows up. I'm new to chicken keeping. It's so nice you got different colours. They seem to get along well.

Love their names. So beautiful babies! Congrats.

Hi Micatriance, What's the weather like in Northern Vic? I'm in Melbourne.

Hi Megan, My in-laws live in the Gold Coast. I'm in Victoria. Are you new to chicken keeping?

Beautiful colours. What breed are they?

Absolutely gorgeous!

Thanks for posting this. I will be very helpful to me, especially in terms of the roost/poop board and the nest boxes. Thanks so much for the photos and explanation. You have done a wonderful job.

Welcome MeringoGirls! What state do you live? I'm a migrant in Australia too. I'd love to go to Scotland one day. There are lots of aussies here on BYC.You can go to the threads: Australia - six states and that funny little island...

5 chicks was the total. Thanks for everyone's advice. Mums and babies are well. The two hens seem to be sharing motherhood, so far no problems. I removed the other eggs which started smelling rotten. I haven't done an eggtopsy to see what the cause was.

cute cute cute all above!!!

Yipeee!!! Bantam chicks!

Such a great story about your journey with chickens. Thanks for sharing. I laughed a lot!
