Icelandic Chickens

[Happy Chooks]

I should have guessed you'd be an egg stealer when I read you took an Icelandic egg from Mary's while animal sitting.........I'd better get the lock on the door

fixed!!

Don't forget chick-napping too.

I have five babies hatched now! One more egg is pipped, and another is jiving around inside like it's getting ready. I'm kind of in shock that I have this many eggs hatching.

Here are the first four. I now have a blonde baby in there, as well. The bottom most chick is really struggling. I had two eggs that got cracked pretty bad by some rowdy hens a few days ago, and this one came from one of the damaged eggs. It is beautiful. Light underbelly, chocolatey back and gold flecks on its face. I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't make it, though

that the little struggling chick makes it!

Yay red! Your eggs finally made it without some crazy fluke messing the whole thing up! Fate is finally smiling upon you.

Thanks Mary. Lost the struggling chick last night, but I think something was wrong with it.

Gaela is a pretty girl

Haha, thanks Ace

Hi, I have 4 Icelandic chicks. 2 of them have poofs on their heads and I don't know what it means. Is it gonna be a rooster or just have a crest?
