Could you send close ups of each individual bird please, hard to tell from that distance. 🙂
I finally have some closer pictures...sorry it's taken so long! I don't know if these are good enough, but hopefully! I'm pretty sure #2 & #3 are roosters, just not sure about #1! Please excuse their messy beaks...they were enjoying their morning mash... 😂

Yes 2 & 3 are definitely boys I would say 1 is a girl considering it has a female pompom without streamers and it's crest and wattles are much smaller than the other two. 🙂

Thank you so much! That's what I was thinking! My friend says he has another hen for me if I would like it...I'm very tempted...I have to work out my math... :gig 💞
 
Here's a couple "better" pics of the littles!
View attachment 2184988 there are two colored like this with a little red fluff on their faces
View attachment 2184989 two like this, definitely buff!
View attachment 2184990 one like this, we know it's an Australorp mix, meet Penguin
View attachment 2184991there are two like this, soft yellow with a white apron on it's back.

then we have one that is all soft yellow, it didn't want it's picture taken... oh well.

still waiting on the last egg. it's done a full internal pip now but no external yet.... im a little worried but we'll see.

Cute chicks!!
Hopefully the other one hatches soon! :jumpy
