Anyone want to predict what my chicks would look like :3

There were only 2 successful hatches. The chicks (both boys, oh my) are 12 days old and are rather interesting looking creatures. They seem way smaller than the bantam chicks we picked up from TSC this spring!

What are the parents?

The parents are the rosecomb rooster and speckled hen shown at the beginning of the thread.

Ah I didn't even notice the t thread was two pages long (on my phone)

Those could end up being some cool looking Roos. Barred rose comb bantams. I imagine they'll be a little on the large size for a bantam tho.

You think they might be large? Both ma and pa are bantams and these seem smaller than I remember my other chicks being. (Though memories can be deceptive!) Their wings are already barred. My problem at this point is that thanks to Mr. Fox, I have am left with a deficit in my hen population!

I just wanted to jump in here and say that the rooster is one sharp looking bird!

If he was silver/blue instead of black, he would look just like our Little Joe.

Oh I didn't realize mom was bantam too. They probably won't be then. Keep us updated on pics I want to see them grow. I have a bantam Rosecomb Roo. He is blue tho. And boy is he pretty.

Thank you. He is really good to his ladies but has his moments with humans. I mostly just give him his space and he doesn't bother anyone. But...just try to get near a lady laying or let a duck try to get between him and treats and all bets are off!
