Baby Chick Pictures!!!!! POST!

[RedPonyAcres]

Here's a couple quick snapshots of my GLW and SS. The next photo is of EE's (not actually true Americaunas). The white "owl" looking one turned out to be a rooster and the other is now laying her first greenish/blue eggs. The last picture is the EE hen now.

Thanks for posting your pics! That really helps. I did find out that our dark brown stripey chick is an Americauna/EE.

Your birds are beautiful.

So we went back to Tractor Supply today and I spoke with an employee who knew a lot about their chicks. The little brown stripey chick is an Easter Egger. Also found out that the 2 cream-colored Gold Sex Links are almost definitely roosters. Oops! The sign was rather confusing to me. Apparently they were straight run and the darker ones are the hens.

The 3rd cream-colored chick I got out of the pullet bin and I assumed it was GSL too, since she looked just like the other 2. But we now think she is going to be white. She is also smaller already than the 2 probable-GSL-roosters.

I am still kicking myself for only getting one EE. They are getting more in on Wednesday, so we are going to see if we can get some more EE's. Since I'll have to rehome the 2 roosters, I'd like to get 1 or 2 more EE's and possibly one more bantam. I'll have to get 6, so I'm looking for someone to split an order with me.

Also, the bantam turns out to be a silkie.

Thanks for the input!

They are so cute when going through the scruffy pre-teen stage.

I agree. She named the orangeish/red one in the bottom picture raggedy-ann.
