Last night we took the photos to mark the beginning of our 6 month study. I think I will add weights to my 6 month study too. I will start weighing at 4 weeks and then do monthly weighings with the monthly pictures. I am actually very excited to do this.

I have selected 9 chicks - - - 2 cockerels and 7 pullets to conduct the study on. Of course, that is assuming that I have learned how to sex cirrectky by wing feathers.

This little ones are 10 days old. . . . PINK of course means I think it is a little pullet.
