My chicks are here!

[wings]

Great pictures! Do you have any more?

 

[Jen4]

Heres alittle more...

 

[vortec]

lol, the sebright is a good deal smaller then the rest. Does she do alright when it is feeding time or does he/she get pushed around. I am considering getting bantams as well and my flock will be mostly standard too so I would love to know. Thanks

We have one other bantam that is smaller... it looks like a chipmunk.
She (Goldie. atleast I hope its a girl) jumps right in with the rest... seems to be doing great. Actually all of them are and everyone gets their fair share of food. I just got done giving them a treat, slice of bread. Its so funny to watch them attack the pieces when I hold them and say here chickie chickie

Oh and we just heard from the wood guy... he will have our wood ready for pick up on Monday

then we can start on the coop!

 

[vortec]

Thats great. We too are planning on building a coop possibly over spring break, to divide the 18 roosters(!!!) from my 12 layers to give them a little peace. The building we construct is also going to serve as the meat bird house in September to fill the freezer, after raising Jumbo Cornish X Rocks. I will definitely have to pick up some more layers with that group that we are going to keep. It just wouldn't be right not to.

LoL! I know, I know, I'm on my way to 500 chicks to keep but I haven't bought any since early March so so far so good.

Sure. I'm no expert but I'll give it a try. Do you have a pic of it that really shows it good?

[Jen4]

Be back in a few... going to go take one

 

[Jen4]

Best I could get...

Jen, I am absolutely stumped on this one, lol.

If I had to take a shot in the dark I would say brown leghorn, but I wouldn't put any money on it. Hopefully somebody else knows. I will say it is cute though

Here's a shot of a standard brown leghorn chick found by google:
