August Hatch-A-Long!

[Heidisgran]

This question really isn't about a hatching but idk who else to ask... I got this lavender silkie with some Cochin frizzles. It's supposedly around 6 mo old but it doesn't look at all like the rest if my 5 mo olds. It's smaller but the head is completely different, it doesn't have black skin and it gets height when it tries to fly- about 1-1.5 ft. My silkies are lucky to get 6 in! I think he sold me something else but idk what. Any suggests?

it's got to be a mix...is it full size? or bantam size? that baby is only 6 weeks old not 6 months!

Mine were Lavender Orpingtons. I still have them in the bator. How long should I wait to take them out and open them?

have any hatched? what day are you on? where did you get them? did you candle them?

It's a bantam. Would it be showing all that red on its head? The lack of black skin is throwing me off. It's a pale skin tone.

My broody is going to hatch these chicks in about 7 days and I'm in my own "nesting" stage LOL lots of preparation going on here, I can't keep up with all these posts. I'm so sorry I can't give more support, good luck everyone with the hatches.. Love all the chick pics ...so cute.

I have a few girls that are very upset I keep taking their eggs!

the pictures aren't that clear...I can't think what breed has so much red around the eyes..I've seen pictures tho...maybe look up red faced chickens??

Day 21 Finally arrived, getting kinda worried after the heat and Hum problems day 3-6. put 49 into lockdown. No movement . shouldn't at least a few be rolling around a little?

I've never had a single egg move before hatch.
