BS chicks are not "white" when they hatch. BS chicks that are carrying one copy of white,, It still takes about 3 days before the flight feathers changes from yellow to white

I think the close one is a cock and the far one may be a hen.
Looks like a pair how old are they ? 7 weeks?

Picture please!
Beautiful babiesHere are a few shot at moving targets, not really what you need for your album. but most of my babies from this year. Well, the ones I haven't sold yet, some of these will not be sold as I have to see them feather out.
These are last weeks hatch being represented by all five breeding pens and one illusive black feather footed pea teacher.
The tri-colored ones on the left are from my Pied WE/ Silver Pied et al pen, also got a couple of Whites from the same pen.
These hatched out a few days efore the last batch and are from my IB pen. I suspect that the BS came from an egg that rolled under the pen divider. The Cameo is from an earlier hatch that was not keeping up so it went back with younger chicks.
These are between two and three weeks old, another mix of everything and my first Silver Pieds and one Spaulding split Pied from either my IBSP or Cameo SP.
Now the four or five week olds.
And the oldest ones, six and seven weeks old.
I wish I had that many with that much variety for peachicks. All I have is 3 peachicks with a 4th one on the way. Out of 8 eggs so far 4 eggs hatched hopefully a 5th soon. Then I have about 1-2 weeks and then my peahen will have peachicks herself. Maybe some day when I have my own place I can have that many and that much variety. I will send a picture of the 3 peachicks in a little bit. One of them I'm thinking is male since he fans up a lot and tries to fly. The peachick that hatched with it looks almost identical so I think I have 2 males. The new peachick is darker in the wing for right now so I'm thinking hen but not guarantee.Here are a few shot at moving targets, not really what you need for your album. but most of my babies from this year.
