ya - i have let them (all 26) outdoors now, during the day, ....since they were 3 weeks old, it is very hot here. A couple of days ago, because they started so much posturing at not even 4 weeks old, i opened up the messy part of the run, ....the one i thought of cleaning up ...and guess...

Not sure how this works with posting and images - The baby chicks only got here last week, so this one is 8 days old, sat on my shoulder and I managed to get a shot ....so - eehm - there's the buttercup comb :) just for fun

lol - that made me laugh - i have 5 fayoumis from an assorted batch .....keeping my fingers crossed for females :) luckily no one sleeps next close to the coop

I have 11 blue andalusians, some black, some blue, some splash from a straight run. They are 9 days old and I noticed that some definitely have tail feathers approaching 1/2 inch ...other pretty much no tail (mini stubbs) - all my buttercups have tails ...so I am wondering if tails come in...

wow, that is a beauty

My straight run chicks are 9 days old. I am just starting out with chickens this year, looking to have both foragers for my unruly garden as well as egg-layers. My first batch is a mix (blue andalusian, golden polish, buttercups and egyptian fayoumis). My next batch is going to be buff catalanas...
