My two babies, Jewel [black], and Sherbet [brown].
I couldn't pick who to enter, so I decided to let you choose. We got Jewel at "11" weeks old [she was half the size of all the other pullets, we suspect she was a mix-up from the 8 week old pen next to them]. And we got Sherbet as a day-old chick. She still had her egg tooth, but it fell of that arvo. I do have 2 others, Nim and Leaf, but these guys are the cutest [the other 4 belong to my siblings]. Jewel is so submissive it is a problem though, she gets bullied a lot by Pip and Leaf. Belle is her "protector", and they are usually inseperable, it is so sweet to see them together. Sherbet is completetly different. She used to lay her eggs in our neighbors bag of mulch, but that was stopped. She likes to hop up on the 2 metre high garage windowsill to eat spiders, she explores non-stop, and is very snuggly, Jewel is pretty snuggly too, but not so much as the browns. And now my post is getting far too long so I will end it here.

This is Batman.... he’s 8 months old and is a ??? All I know is that he’s big like a jersey giant, but he’s colored like a Black Copper Marans. He has gold speckles on his breast. He protects his ladies. And his crow is super loud.
We got him from a chicken rescue hatchery at one day Old
He is just gorgeous. He does look like a BCM's...and yours looks a lot like mine did. Will see if I can find a photo. This guy is almost 6 months here. Big boy.
