Gooserzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!

Mutts/crosses are fun to guess at what they will look like with their feathering - so much fun to watch them grow. (And they tend to be vigorous and healthy, too.)

NN and all the rest are pretty much the same age is yours remember we set on the same day the 21st of December my first two hour on the 8th and then they continue through the 11th but the turkey hatched one week later!

I can't tell if that's NN or Nn....

That's right - I had forgotten. The boys in my group (almost all are boys) are growing and feathering out quite fast, and look a little ahead of yours, but their daddy was astonishingly ahead of all his fellow chicks as well (which is why I kept him). I have one girl - she looks a little more at the stage of yours.

It looks to me like you have a Nn there. (Here's my single NN from the most recent hatch, just a day old or so - there should be almost nothing there):

For sure got some SLW crosses, just not sure with which roo! Also some possible Welsummer or Barnvelder crosses as well!

Thanks! Not sure if I'm hoping for a he or a she, but s/he is both NN and has a rose comb (like daddy), so this is a special little chick.

OK, guys, My bread is out of the oven, I've gotta go to bed, Good night, all!!!

This is strange I have to Pure barred rocks that I bread and only one of them has bars the other one is all black

So you can see the 1 2with bars, and the black one in the lower corner no bats! Hmmm genetic anomaly or just too soon to tell?
