Chick update! Spending some time watching tv =]
Beautiful! What a difference! Do they have names?
 
I am growing out 14 Spangled Russian Orloff chicks right now. Our area is having -7 degree weather right now at night and our high was in the upper 20's so I collected all the babies and put them back in the brooder till it is over. They do have all there first feathers but with 8 inches of snow I thought it wiser to put them where it is not so cold. I do not want to nurse them when there feet and legs freeze off due to them being in deep snow too long. This bred is generally a good cold hard breed, I just choose not to take the chance. I left the older birds in there run and coop. Here are a few pictures of them, I have a couple just starting to lay eggs now, the entire group are under 8 months old.

She doesn't like taking pics!

And then I found this... I'm not sure how this happens but it surprised me. Just makes her that much more special to me. :)
