Sock Puppet - What a pretty batch of chicks! The 3 you pointed out as roos do like kind of rooish to me too (colorwise) - hopefully, we're mistaken.
Mahonri - The chicks are doing great - nice healthy chicks! I have one BW/W ameraucana chick with totally white wing feathers (at least I think it came out of a BW/W egg), while all the others have white & grey feathers. Does the white signify the BW or W, the sex, or did I get confused as to which egg it came from?
This is the white feathered chick:
The rest of them are feathered similar to these two:
Your blue eggs are dark! We have 15 pullets/hens that are old enough to be laying and this are the 10 eggs I collected from them a few days ago. One or two of the blue eggs are from the ameraucanas (can't remember if they both laid that day), the other blue ones and the green egg are from my easter eggers. We don't have any white egg layers anymore.
Edited to add - the eggs have more of a green tint in my kitchen under the 'warm' tinted lightbulb that they do outside in the sunshine.
