To see them as adults (or adolescents!!) go to the Barnevelder and Easter Egger pages. They are quite comical. They come "pouring" out of the door when I open it in the morning. And they are getting quite used to me and come when I open the cage to put food in. I love to take a crate and sit out by the cage and "talk" to them. I'm also looking for a "treat" I can give them to get them to come to my hands. The Easter Eggers sleep on the roosts and the Barnevelders sleep in the corner of the coop. I have blocked off the nest boxes so they can't sleep in them!!
