August Hatch-A-Long!

[BY Chicken Lady]

the 2 with the little reddish fluff look like my rir's ....the darker one with markings is gonna be a looker!! I guess we shall see huh?

You think? I have two RIR pullets, but didn't get them until 3weeks old so I don't know what the babies look like. The one lightest one is turning almost white today. They are all getting wing feathers that are diff color than their fluff, hmmm.

Still watching my 4 malpositioned Welsummers veining. Will probably be able to let them out some more this evening. Not wanting to rush anything.

You have amazing patience

I heard back from the owner of the poultry farm where my store bought eggs came from. She said they have several breeds, so if you have one of these breeds and my chicks looked like your please let me know which ones. Here are the breeds:
Well Summer, Turken, Sussex, Rhode Island Red, Orpington, Dominique, Buttercups, Australorps, Araucana, Wyandotte, Barred Rocks, & Leghorns.

Here are my chicks as of this morning.

They are not RIR or Buttercups or Barred Rocks, or Turkens, or Wyandottes, not Australops, not Dominiques, ....so I know one is a Welsummer, other 2 are either leghorns or Sussex, could be Orpington, but they are real yellow. Here is a leghorn chick.

I think I am losing one Its the one I have the least hope for - the one with the yolk and feet over its head It just started gasping and panting. I got it out to see if there was anything I could do. But the major veins have not absorbed and because of its positioning they are on the top instead of bottom I offered a little sav-a-chic in an dropper and it took a few sips, then I even offered some egg yolk/water and it took some. It doesn't appear to be absorbing its own yolk much at all
