8 and 4 week old Orp chicks Growing up very nice blues

[BamaChicken]

Well I have a choice of at least two nice blue cockerals. Let them grow a bit and see how typey they are. They have the right eye color. They are in with a few silkies that hatched at the same time. I already gave away a few of them.

Here are the 4 week olds Five of them are out of the breeder in Fl. eggs that I brought back with me from the show in Jan. Also you can see my splash pullet I finally hatched.

Well, you can always send me a blue roo.

Oh wait, I might have one. I guess I better wait till I can tell what gender they are.

got the eggs BTW thanks soooo much!

 

[BamaChicken]

Nice birds.......Julie. I got a splash pullet the 1st and 2nd hatch I did but, they are bantams not standards.

MP out of the five that are in that first group,looks like 2 out of five. On the second group which is not out of my flock except for the splash pullet and the blue they look cockeral heavy to me. I should be able to tell better in about two weeks.

I am just curious ho wmany of mine that are blue will turn out to be males. LOL I guess the % is high!

Some of mine are too young yet to be sexed but they are all goreous! In about two months time, I would be able to figure out which is which! I got alot more blacks going on here and possibly some mottled but its a wait and see going on here!
