I take no credit! He came from eggs from Lynne. I hatched only two out of that batch and sadly lost his hatch mate to a predator (she was a pretty little girl, too!) luckily I have a little black mottled/mf lady his age from Amy, so hopefully I will be able to start hatching some of my own eggs...

Here's a few in a group. Anyone want to agree or disagree on my sexing based on feather growth? I think the one at the top and the lower left are cockerels and the other 3 (fully covered in feathers) are girls...

I have 8 chicks on the brooder from Ashley. Hatched 7/15. When we're yours hatched? I bought them as day old, and I think I ended up with 3 girls & 5 boys!
I think Twig is pretty cute! Almost looks to be Silver laced? Or a cross with silver laced maybe? Please be sure to update as he ages, would love to see how he turns out. ANd just curious, what color was he as a chick?
