I guess they are now in the gawky, teenage stage!

 

Mine are 10 days behind you.  They still have alot of their fluffiness but the pin feathers are showing up now.

They are half feathered now and look goofy as anything and seem to change daily. The next photos will really look different. I have to say that these chicks are very friendly, Maybe that is due to them hatching here and being handled daily.
