Ahh, chicken math.
I added 3 new chicks to my batch, but I didn't hatch them. They WERE hatched NYD but it was more by incident than anything. Three adorable little Sicilian Buttercup chicks, and I'm hoping I have a roo and two pullets...from the behavior that's what I'm betting on. Two of them are very retiring and delicately built, and one is forward as anything and thick-legged and very upright stance!
That said, they're still 1/3 the size of my two 3/4 RIRs...those things are MONSTERS.
