I love them! But man, silkies are kind of ugly at this stage, right? Well at least mine is right now. The rest look amazing. Well, I guess I've got to go get my camera and take pics of Sage and her buddy

I only kept one from this hatch. A little cochin girl [she's gotta be a girl, she has the most submissive personality!]

She even took care of the hatch after her [she was 4 weeks they were 2 days old] I think she'll be a good broody hen!] When I was taking photos of the other chickens, she'd run back to me and hide inbetween my legs. When I was laying on my belly in the grass, she kept hopping up on my back and trying to eat my tshirt...when I finally sat up, she came over and pecked all the pieces of grass stuck to my legs off of me. Silly girl.

Seriously, the friendliest baby I've ever hatched out. I just love her to death.

Meet....Bigfoot!

She is beautiful!! I agree I think she is a girl. Her comb is dull red and it is also still very small. No waddles yet either.

So I finally went out and took some pics of the babies. They really do grow up so fast.

They went from this:




To this in a matter of 7 weeks:

Sorry thumper.

I just set mine up 3 days ago. I'm going to wait a few more days to candle and clear out my eggs.

I do have one right now that's oozing out of a couple areas. I've got to toss it...I think it's going a weak shell.
