View attachment 4164111View attachment 4164112I think the littles are going to force the issue.


The popping sound was one of the eggs...instant protest from all the occupants. STINKS! No idea if the one that hopped in with PITA went back to Cardhu. I retrieved the stray yellow and dumped back in with PITA. Between the smell and the energy, I think Cardhu at least will be abandoning the nest today.

Wow! That's impressive.

How do they get their chicks down from those boxes? Is there a ramp somewhere? There must be.

I went out and got some pictures of the babies a few minutes ago.

We will start with the silkies. Ignore their waterer and the mud. I just cleaned and filled that thing 2 hours ago. I came back out and they had completely filled it with dirt and shavings. I swear they take after their parents. They have a 3 gallon water, and they do the exact same thing every time I fill it up with clean water. Once I scoop out the mud for the first time they stop throwing dirt and shavings in it. They must just like muddy water.

They are still too young to really begin guessing genders. I will say though I am confident on at least one being a pullet. That would be Bingo the little moorehead partridge. She just screams pullet right now. Calypso has some wild feathering coming in, but, no wattles and a very narrow comb so I'm not worried about her yet either. Honestly no wattles or super wide or obvious combs on any of the silkies so I am still going pullets on all of them right now. They are 8 weeks old today.

Next up is Goose and Gryffyn's chicks. Goose's baby boy turned 3 weeks old yesterday. Gryffyn's chicks are 3 weeks old tomorrow and Saturday.

I will need more time to start guessing gender's with Georgina and Georgette. I'm seeing some of George's traits starting to show which are still unfamiliar with.
