Aww, the miracle babies!!   They are so cute.  They will do fine together.  It's funny how the older ones act scared to death of the young ones when you first put them in.

 I like the fact that your brooder is see through.  Mine are bins.  So, when I put them outside, they are really funny.  They just stand there, and look.  It doesn't take them long though, before they are running up and down the little coop..loving the space.  I do hold them while indoors, so they get a different bit of scenery once in a while. 

 Looks like you have several blacks in the older ones, but those little ones are blue!  Are those from the blue Wyondottes you got?  Very pretty color.

 How are the Lavenders doing Shinx..Lisa?  I am pretty sure mine is a girl, and, I am pretty sure my black is a girl.  Still, no red in that comb.  Sure is getting a nice full neck.  Becoming very pretty like your black ones Lisa.  No white though, not yet anyway.  :)

 Brad, is your pencil just getting bigger and bigger?  I can't believe how much bigger she is than my other pullets, that are older!  Going to be a big girl!

 Shinx, love the picture of those kids.  Too cute.  Are you making an album of any kind?  That would be fun to do with all the different times you do this.

  And, loving the color of that egg.  Pretty blue egg...ahem, did you see that egg Lisa? lol..  Will be waiting to see if it hatched on it's own..soo hoping it does for you!

Mine seems to be all white black or some form of gray right now. Need to add some color! Hope I get a Wh Amer. girl. Actually I need two so SashaT can have one. Right Sasha!
I may need to get more of those eggs is they do not give me a couple girls.....
The lavs, oh the lavs! One still very much a pullet. One still very much has me guessing.

Right, Lisa!  Wheaten or Blue wheaten girl, I won't be too picky!  

BTW, USPS tracking says my eggs should be here "by April 13".  I've never seen a tracker say by a certain date like that, it's usually "by the end of [certain date]".  So could that possibly mean they will be here BEFORE the 13th?  That would be tomorrow, er, TODAY! I'm a wishful thinker.  (It's 2am and I just got done putting the first coat of paint on the 2nd living room.  Maybe I'm a not just a wishful thinker, but a tad delirious? lol)

Just a few fun pictures to share.  :)  They were only outside to play for about an hour when it was warm enough, before the storm front started to hit.  I'll take some of the bantam chochins tomorrow...they're so stinking cute!  Looks like 2 are frizzled and one isn't.

Love the teenagers, Sasha.

Lisa, love your babies too. What  miracles they are!

Red, I love that I can ramble on and on about chickens here, and you guys get it. I wouldn't worry at all.

Cynthia, I do keep a chicken blog, but I haven't updated it since early yesterday.

I'm skipping my beloved kickboxing class to go to the preschool this morning and see how the slowpoke is doing. I've emotionally prepared myself to expect to find it dead in shell. Here's to hoping I'm pleasantly surprised.  Three of my eggs were that same shade of blue. The one still in the egg seemed to be dark, but maybe it's my imagination. The other two chicks were the silvery color.  The green egg had a very dark chick.

Lav Ams: I am thinking one is a boy and one is a girl. The very big one is really shooting up now, and his comb seems to becoming more red and pronounced. I'll try to go out and take a picture today.
