The standard breed chicks are four weeks old and the D'Uccle bantams are over five weeks old now. The D'uccles, hatchery chicks, are not adventurous and are quite skittish, but all have been locked inside until today because of snow, so that could be part of it. The D'Uccles had to be pushed out of the coop while the Delaware pullet and the blue barred cockerel were all over the place, up and down the ramp, eating and scratching around and having a good time.
The blue barred boy is 1/2 Delaware, 1/4 Barred Rock and 1/4 Blue Ameraucana and is in need of a home, hint, hint....The Delaware pullet is named Tasha and will be staying.
