My first homegrown silkie chick (pic)FLUFFY pic update

[farmin'chick]

He's not even out of the incubator yet -- parents a splash partridge silkie roo x partridge hen. He had the cutest little multi-toed feet sticking out of the shell when he was hatching! And he crawled out of the shell, then turned around and crawled back in! Funny chick! He has a chip of eggshell stuck to him on the back... He'll look prettier tomorrow!

Here's the fluffy update! The light 3 are cochin bantams, and the two silkies are splash partridges.

Enjoy!

ETA: The little hen on my head in the avatar laid her first egg today!

They are the NOISIEST chicks I have ever hatched! They stand in a circle and peck each other's faces, too.
