American serama thread!

Sounds like you and I operate somewhat the same way. I look at all my young ones 2 or 3 times a day and handle them. I try to give some names and if you don't have a ton of them, you just know them. I have 16 which is the most babies I've ever had a one time and I have 8 males and 8 females and have separated them into 2 grow out cages. I have the bands ordered from SCNA and will be getting them next month but they said not to put them on until they are 12 weeks old so maybe their legs are pretty well grown by then as far as thickness.
 
Ok, done hatchen Jerrys eggs- 16 serama and 2 think they are called paint silkies? the other eggs just didnt hatch out but I am real happy with what did. Bummed no silkie serama though.

I've only one that 'changed' enough to notice, most of the ones in that hatch were black or mottled.
