Here are a couple of pics I snapped today. They are about 18 days old now, the ones with Nugget. The two black EEs with Dusty are 9 days old.

AWWWW!!!! Look at all the fuzzy butts! They don't look like that hen. She reminds me of my easter egg hen I had as a kid. Only chicken I had at the time, and I loved Broody.

Very cute! I love blue chickens!

The first hen is a Buff Orpington and the other one with the younger chicks is a blue Orpington. Neither are raising their own chicks.

Ah, explains that then.

The little black and yellow bellied ones, are they black australorps? They look similar to mine, but not exactlly.

I need to see what a grown australorp looks like as I have 4 babes.

The ones in the last picture are Black Orpingtons. There is one Black Barred EE in that group, too, but it has a spot on its head.

Hi babies. <waving> Meg's baby is coming along as well, that coloration is interesting.

They look great Cyn, thanks for the pics.
