Most of mine started feathering in the first week. The chicks that hatched last Wednesday are already starting to feather and i have 3 partridge bantams that were pretty much fully feathered at 5 weeks

I'm always amazed at how quickly the feathers grow in. Mine already have several inches of wing feathers and the tails are starting to grow. They are day 6 today.

I know a few may disagree..but so far, I have found that to be the best way yet for me. The little tail feathers start early too.

I'm so excited. I found someone in California that raises Nankins. I ordered some! Guess they are really low in numbers globally. One of the oldest little bantams known. I love getting rare breeds to help keep them going. Have a friend that can help with them too if they hatch well.
I remember when BC Marans were rare. Favorells (spelling) were rare..not sure these are considered rare any longer?
Oh well, here I go again, more little ones to worry over.

The ones that I am getting on Sat. that we are going to start another thread on, are, Wheaten Ameraucanas. I am picking them up here in state. But if this guy gets these Nankins out today or tomorrow, I will be watching them around the same time. Excited for them!
