Oh I like hearing this!! The Roos are a little slower to grow their feathers, right? Chickies feathers are coming in the same as the other 9. I hope raising babies doesn't change your Mille Fleur hen's temperament. She sounds like such a love.

All my MF chicks look identical until about 4-6 weeks.
But my roo-chicks are the ones scrunched in the corner, screaming 'It's gonna eat meee!!!!!' when I reach for them. My hen-chicks have always been more willing to be friendly, especially if treats were incolved.

Thanks, I hope Georgie-girl doesn't change after being a mom. I know she's been more patient as a broody, so I'm hopeful.

That's very cute. Nothing like chicks taking a dirt bath. I have had chicks (sexed pullets) that were extremely friendly and a bit larger than the rest. One had a bigger comb too...then 4 months later she laid an egg.
