That next to the last picture..... those are sure some thick looking legs.

Party pooper.

Kelly, Thanks for posting the pics! They are getting big in a hurry! I love the second picture...that chick looks for it has a long cape on.....very Viking-like!!

She's just big boned.

Thanks! I just hope she turns out to be a pullet. They are feathering in really quick under the Eco Glow.

Beautiful pics--or rather, beautiful birds! I love following this thread, even if it will be awhile before I have my own Icelandics--and Isbars! I am feeding vicariously off you. Hope you don't mind!

Welcome! Yes, you can live vicariously off of us!

Big boned, yes, that is what I was thinking.

I have 14 Icelandics babies and 8 Delaware babies in the brooder. I think I did ok for my very first hatch. I set 42 eggs, tossed 11 on day 10. That left me with 31 and I had 22 hatch.
I will be setting the last of my Icelandic eggs for Daron later today.

HHen,

Congrats on the great hatch!! My prediction is that the two dark chicks in the center of the group will both be mottled, one a pullet and one a cockerel.

Laura, Congratulations on your hatch! YAY, 14 new Icelandics!

PS....... Don't get the Delawares and the Icelandics mixed up.
