AWESOME your def addicted!! welcome to the group!! he he he

Good morning ladies. (And gents) Wow, this thread moves really fast.

Got some more BLRW eggs yesterday, and some Porcelain D'Uccles arrive today. I got bit bad by the hatching bug.

Quote: DH said something too, but when we figured out final cost most people would say well I may as well buy a sytro bator, thinking they are better not understanding how they work : (

Three weeks! Time to start guessing the sex of these little chickieboos.


I'm thinking pullet? Although the tail feathers aren't showing up yet.


I'm totally undecided on this one.


Here's the first one's 'twin'. I'm going with Pullet.


The title of this picture is "I'm a boy!" Even though his tail feathers came in days before everybody elses, I've had him pegged as a cockrel since he hatched. Believe it or not, he's only 6 hours older than the next youngest, and 36 hours older than the youngest.


Boy boy boy boy boy


Boy. Look at that comb!


Look at those waddles! What a pitty, I really liked this chick. Maybe he'll be well behaved and get along with my (hopefully I'll get a) cream legbar roo.


I couldn't help it, one more of the firstborn. Too bad he's destined for the stew pot. What a pretty bird.


The youngest. Also, kind of a runt. I didn't expect this one to live. But live it did. Pullet?


I'm going with pullet.

I hope too! let me know if the extra boost perks him up, I don't think it would hurt to just add it to waterer for all of them would it?

I will do that tonight when I clean the brooder (which I have to do every night, chicks poo SO much!!)

 

[Sally Sunshine]

I will go with roo on this one! although he looks pretty girly lol

I will go with roo on this one! although he looks pretty girly lol

"He" certainly does have the legs for it too.

My youngest loves these babies so much! Everyday when he comes home from school he scoops them up and loves them for a little while!

3D just wanted to say that I think Hope is a pullet!

That's my guess and I stickin wit it!

Sounds good. She laid another one for me today, but my mom accidentally dropped it on the floor and cracked it. It was perfect though. Same size and colour. D
