    I came up with some names for my August babies, at least some of them. First, the Marans... Assuming she sticks with this pattern and doesn't suddenly go full cuckoo I will name her Astraea. As for the 'twins' (Yes, I know they aren't really twins), their names came to me while I was roofing...

    You actually got your chick to sit still while you dressed it as a cowboy? Either that is one extremely docile breed or you drugged it! (You didn't, did you?)

    "Can I come out and play now?" My August babies are outside now, Big enough to be outdoors, but still small enough to squeeze through the gaps in the chain-link fencing, I have them in the large dog cage.

    Sorry I skipped a week, they aren't changing as fast. They're almost fully feathered and getting a bit big for the bin, but I'm not done with the new coop yet, so I might have to put them into the dog cages with the rest of the flock temporarily. The coop is designed so i can partition off...

    Can't be really sure from that angle, How red is 'her' comb and do the tail feathers show a distinctive downward curl? These are usually good indicators of a 'roo.

    Update on my Babes of Summer. First, the Easter Eggers... Last week And I think I may know why I have such a hard time telling these two apart... Four weeks They're twins! Or very nearly so! And no, I don't think they came from the same egg! They may have shared similar parentage though...

    They are all still very people friendly, they will walk up onto my palm without hesitation (especially if there are treats in it!). The Marans is so far the most aloof.

    Two weeks now, and everybody's still healthy and happy. They're feathering out nicely. Two of the 'chipmunks' look as if they are going to be rather similar, the one with the 'mottled' head fur the same just browner. The pale yellow's feathers are coming out pale yellow and light...

    Well I'm by no means an expert, so don't sue me if i'm off. But I think it looks like it might be a chicken....

    Welcome to chicken ownership. My BA usually starts singing about an hour before it gets light too. My coop is far enough from the house that I just hear him. I tend to wake early anyway, so I actually find myself listening for his first notes! Kinda tells me everything is alright. Glad to hear...

    So long as she's healthy I wouldn't worry. She is going to molt those feathers at least a couple of times before she's full grown

    OK, here they are at 1 week (give or take a few days) I can only specifically match the Marans and the yellow EE to their day(s) old photos, the rest have changed too much!
