24 Orpington Eggs in the bator -6 week update

Thank you. They are such funny little things! I fed them some meal worms yesterday and they went crazy. Running, dodging, snatching worms from each other. I couldn't help but laugh.
 
2 weeks ago today my eggs began to hatch. This is how they are progressing.


1. His little toes are giving me a fit. I am always having to fix him a pair of boots. They get wore off or picked off.

3. This baby is half the size of the rest and has a rust/yellowish tint in natural light. I think this one might be the brahma cross.

10. This chick is not as pale as it looks. My flash washes it out to almost white. It is silvery, very light but not as white as htis photo appears. The legs do appear greenish to me.

WOW! They are growing up to be such handsome good looking chicks. I just love all those shades of blue. Hopefully someone will need one of the handsome roos for breeding. Thanks for sharing!
