My silkie rooster "Lemonade" and at least two of his lady friends created four baby chicks about 12 weeks ago. I heard a raspy, immature crow this morning but couldn't figure out from who. I know it's about time for them to reveal whether they are "staying or leaving." Which breaks my heart because I love them so much. I'm pretty sure "Coffee" (left) is the mom of Squib and Firecracker (for sure)...Lemonade is on the right.
This is Squib's side view
And Firecracker
Bic (I believe his mom was Hazel...Bantam Cochin...she was stolen by a hawk)
and Bombshell....
Sweet Tea (BLACK cochin/silkie mix is presumably the mom...how this beauty is all white is a surprise to me)
Bic and Squib in center
Squib and Firecracker
So...I know it's early but any guesses on gender?
Thanks!
