I sure will Dee! She's a love bug for sure!

She would be immediately tossed out of a breeding program for these eyes, but they are so pretty, its part of the reason I picked her!

He has the best personality, he never runs from me and I can pick him up very easily, he's always the first one to come to me when I'm bringing treats out for them, I will b sad to let him go.

Argh!! Lol I don't want to give him up!!

I keep thinking there's still a chance for him to be a her, they are only 8 weeks,

I always thought he was a she, his name is Alice, but his comb has come in and my other Austrolorp has no comb yet, and they are the same age. So I'm thinking boy, that and the tail feathers, but no crow out of him yet, not even a little one...sigh, I guess I will just wait and see.

Ok my 8 week old is getting pretty big but he still is only peeping

Does anyone know a roundabout age these boys start to crow?

Yeah I was concerned about the front one, but now she's looking like a hen and Alice is looking Roo, time will tell I guess, hate to hav to process that one, she's (or he's) my sons chicken

My girls are 6 weeks now, hopin the one with the bigger comb is still an Alice not an Alex!

I'm thinking she's a hen, but lets see what others are thinking ;)

Jersey Giants have yellow soles. Black Australorps have pink/white soles

Oh good! Phew, sigh of relief, lol

Ok guys, I got some comb close ups. They are both Australorps, but from different parents and about 3-5 days apart in age. Alice Shachiqua I'm starting to worry that Alice is really going to be Alex!

Quick genetics question, if I breed a splash Austrolorp Roo with my two black hens, I will get 100% blue? Anyone know hat would happen if I bred him with my Buff Orpington?

I just noticed today that their butt fluff is really getting poofy!!! It wasn't even that fluffy yesterday! FLUFFY BUTTS!!!! I'm so excited!! I am having mosquito and chigger problems, no gnats, do gnats bite? If not be glad, I'm going broke on bug repellent.

MeanV2, 8 weeks!!!!!!! Omg they are huge! Mine are 5 weeks and they are a quarter of that size!

Do their beaks change colors as they grow? One of mine has a good bit of orange on hers, then again she's a hatchery bird so there's no telling what her genetics are

Thank you! And sorry prairiechickens, my auto correct called you prairie hickey!

Thanks prairie hickeys, they are 5 weeks this week so I will keep my fingers crossed!
