I haven't named the two from my first hatch. They are 4 wko now and outside in the growing pen. They are just chook and chooky until I know their gender. I have Tootie from the second hatch and two I bought for her company inside in the brooder. I haven't named her friends yet. I'm thinking BF1 and BF2 until I'm certain they are female. I'm just terrible with names, lol.

THIS IS SO WIERD!! OK I have no idea what Jumpstart is!! He is 1 day old and has 5 toes, but looks like a frizzel! BUT my other frizzle,named Chip has 4 toes! Pippin has 5 toes! (I know pippin is a silkie but what is Jumpstart?! Jumpstart and Chip look like penguins and they both have yellow under their wing and a pink thing up their Beek, but WHY do they both have DIFFERENT number of toes??!! I'm SOOO confused
