    Well, I had ordered 5 partridge cochins and 5 partridge rocks. When I got to the feed store they also had speckled sussex, delewares and EEs. I just couldn't help myself. Now I have 15 new little babies. I ended up with 4 partridge rocks, 4 partridge cochins, 4 speckled susses, 2 delewares and 1 EE. They are soooo cute! Not to mention all pullets!!!!!!! I think I'm done with hatching and straight run. I like knowing what I'm getting! HeHe.... Well, here are some pictures:

    You have your partridge rock chicks and your speckled sussex chicks mixed up for sure, with those kind of markings theres no way those babies are partridge rock! [​IMG] .

    Okay... I fixed it! [​IMG] The nice thing is when they get bigger they won't be hard to tell apart! Thanks for the correction...

    Skeeter9 - The name of the town you live in makes me want cookies!!!! That is one nice thing about living in Arizona, we have such mild climate during the winter that they have chicks from about October - May.

    Thank you all for you nice coments! I love this age when they will just sit in your hand and sleep!!!!

    Very cute babies. I just got 4 partridge rocks and I love the colors on them. Very cute.

    P.S. is Molly still pregnant? I have been waiting to hear and see pics. of the babies. Even if you decide to keep them all I just want to see the baby pics. Molly is so cute I am curious to see what the kiddies look like.
