SOmeone said the green ones look like lime jello with whipped cream. I think the yellow ones look like parakeets!

Nice pics!

So the Skittles are all going to be roos? What are you going to do with that many roos?

The ones that I decide not to keep will go to the flock at the stables. At this point it looks like all the blue, green, yellow, and purple are some sort of pure white breed. Most likely commercial layers. The red and orange ones are coming out with buff and brown feathers. I chose the "all male" rather than st. run, cuz they were Cornish X and I didn't want the really heavy ones. They said the all male ones would be a mix of lighter breeds with light colored chicks like Leghorns, BO's and New Hampshires

How cute. You can see their natural wing colors feathering out. The other birds look startled at first

must have been the skittle colors!

Eventually, that will be my coop. I am planning to attach a run and a chicken sized hatch for when they get a bit bigger. There is already a ledge for the nest boxes and I have some low roosts in the corners, which will be replaced with full sized ones soon.
