How old are my Cornish Rocks?

[JNorth]

Can anyone give me an idea of how old these Cornish Rocks are? When we got them their wings were just starting to feather. We've had them for 2 weeks.

I don't think they are over 3 weeks. They were probably a few days old when you got them. You could call and find out when the shipment arrived. They were probably 2 or 3 days the day they got them.

They look exactly like mine, feathered on the body but still fuzzy on the head. Mine are 3 weeks old today.

Thanks!

Looks like they are still inside your house? Watch out Cornish's get stinky much fast then standard chickys! If possible I would move them into the garage or garden shed or even the neighbors house.

Mine are 4 1/2 weeks, and in a shed as it is really cold. I never thought of the nieghbors house or garage to aviod chicken dust and cornish X. Great suggestion.

Yep they are in our house. I change the bedding (shredded paper) very often. That's partially why I was asking about their age. I can't wait until they are old enough to be moved into the woodshed coop. I refuse to use a heat lamp in there for safety reasons though so they need to be able to keep themselves warm out there. Maybe next week.....
