My 6 week old chicks Bantams Standard

Very cute! Is there any size difference between the standard and bantam at this point? They look to be the same size?

Yes, She is much bigger. Ill try to get a size comparison picture.

Hi! Tried to look for pics, but couldn't find any. My chick only lived a week and a half, so hadn't feathered in or anything  Good luck with yours and please post pics!!! Thanks so much for the egg offer, I am in southern Calif(orange county) and would definitely pay shipping! Can I PM you when my girl goes broody...again?

of course ! She's almost 16 weeks old. So the timing will be perfect! You are welcome to as many eggs as you want.

this is Chicken Little at 3 days old. I've been feeding her kelp and she seems to have more color and I could swear more flowers on her. I read somewhere if you feed them kelp it helps with plumage . Just so you know I feed them very well! Name it and they get it. No meat though. She is extremely spoiled and queen bee! I hope her babies are as great as her!

I will try to get a better picture of her back. Just let me know when your ready. From what I have read your lady is ready every other week.

I will also take a picture of the rooster and other pullet ( I think she's actually a Roo too just in denial

my brother lives in Orange County hopefully I could pay him a visit .

Thank you so much and LOL...yes she is a determined broody for sure! Stand by because right now she has been starting to sit in her nest after she lays

LOL..hope your "pullet" is not a "roo"

Chicken little has beautiful coloring for sure! Is she bantam or standard size? My girl is VERY spoiled as well because she is our only hen right now and is a family pet

Hatched her in my classroom and fell in love...she is so sweet and loves people!!!!

I just need to clarify something, are you thinking that your Mille Fleur is a Cochin?

she's a bantam. The other two are my Cochins. It will be interesting to see what the baby chicks look like!! Im fascinated on the topic of genetics, however know NOTHING about it! After my boys get a bit bigger I'll do some more research . Great hobby, fun pets and soothing to watch them. They will be in our family for as long forever.
