The last set all looked like normal cuckoos, except a bit of red around the face. Mostly boys though, so I had to try again. Those Braden line eggs from NC are due on Monday. Hopefully next week we'll have lots of baby pics!

My bad- they are due next Friday, my Disney orps are due Monday....

yes, their eggs are about half or smaller than the Marans eggs, they are my DS(9)'s chickens- he likes the bantams as they are easier for him to handle. The rooster's name is Mini Me!
