This post cracked me up! Reminded me of a chick we had this summer, she was in TERRIBLE shape, dried to the bottom of an incubator at school classroom hatch. We brought her home, doctored her up, but then when she was in the tote even WITH other chicks, this little baby was Screaming bloody murder. She could be heard throughout the house, I couldn't fall asleep and finally around 1:00am DS came down from his bedroom and told me, "Mom! I can't take it!!" We then made the decision to take her out to the coop and slip her under our broody. DS says, 'it's a bit like leaving a baby on a doorstep". I said, it is EXACTLY like leaving a baby on a door step. That Barred Holland Broody took the chick right in, she even catered to it above and beyond the rest of her brood. I would post her pic…but she is a White Marans… Anywho, in keeping with the thread, here is one of my Orpie Babies:

Do Orp pullets start to change shape a little after they have been laying a while? My BOs seemed wider before they started laying and now they look curvier after laying for a few weeks...

Roxanne, I appologise for not posting on your birds..
It has nothing to do with being busy it has to do with me posting honesty.
I can't be honest because your cages are so tiny you cant see the bird. All I see is this tiny cramped cage. Sorry.
