Allie & Bino, the albino orpington chicks

in the light of day and dry the 'black' now appears to be dark brown and the blue has a brown face, one more hatched since then but it is another tan one.

Crossing my fingers for you to still get a albino!

They are cuties. Maybe they will carry the albino gene and you can breed some of your own.

Next week I'll try to post some pictures of how you might expect those to grow out. I have some of various ages.

Wow! I just read through this thread and this is amazing! I've never even heard of albino chickens before. Alłie and Bino are looking great! Can't wait to see how they grow up.

Thank you! They haven't had anything exciting happen really, other than them getting bigger. They're 10 weeks old today.
