We are getting there. The older ones are 2 weeks old today and some are getting alot of feathers fast. They aren't peeping anymore, it's more like chirping!! I'll post some pics tonight of my little darlings!! I just had to share the amazing changes I notice already in them in such a short time!
 
Yeah, they grow SOOO fast!! I was taking care of 3 batches of baby chicks at a Fall festival. Each batch was 2 weeks apart. The visitors were FLOORED when they saw how big the first ones were compared to the last. They also couldn't believe they start laying at 5 months. Enjoy your peeps!

(And don't forget the pics!)
 
I wish I would haev know how fast they mature before I got them. I have a friend who wated to take Easter pictures and then when he decided to come it was to late. Oh well!

I would love to see some pictures to see if they look as funky as mine.

I'm so bad at waiting. We'll be watching for those pictures!

Mine are definitely hitting that awkward stage too! I have two Marans and a buff Orp that are 2 weeks old. I actually really like them at this stage- they're very curious and silly. And they like me a little bit now!

I'll post my pics in the morning. Too tired tonight! Ya'll pretty much know what I mean by this stage. It's just really amazing watching the changes they go through. I have a batch of one week old ones, so maybe I can get a pic of them side by side to show the differences. I'll get on it first thing in the morning, promise!
