I couldn't stop myself... (big pics)

[lemurchaser]

I got two more babies. They are 2-3 week old "araucana" pullets (I'm guessing they are really ameraucanas). At the feed store they had a few grey babies, and I really wanted some green or blue egg layers, and I just couldn't say no. I already have 5 5-wk-olds. They are a little stressed right now, and really aren't moving around. So I'm trying to leave them alone and let them settle.

They have really green legs and little cheek puffs. Oh, they're so cute.

What will they look like as adults? I'd love to see progression pics of your babies that looked like this.

This is pretty girl as a baby .

This is Pretty Girl now at 2 years old.

These are a few of her friends at a year old now.

And our Amercauna Rooster

Hope you like. They are a great breed and I love their markings and colors.

Thanks mmajw. Those photos are great. I hope mine turn out as pretty as yours.

The one chick is having a problem, you can read about it here.

Any ideas? She can't seem to stand up, and only shuffles backwards. She does go forward, but powers herself with her wings. Otherwise appears normal. She prefers to perch, but even then, doesn't stand up.

Thank you for saying that. I hope that your one with problem legs gets better soon, wish I could offer some help for you.
