My First Time Raising Chicks They are Ameraucana I got from TSC

[ByrdFeathers]

They sure are cuties!! Remember to take LOTS of pictures! You’ll love to look back on them when they’re mature. Currently we only have 2 chicks right now. They’re each about 3 weeks old. One is a Crested Polish, who is a future rooster, and the other is a silver laced Wyandotte, a future hen.

And for the record, these babies are still living in their brooder, they were just brought outside for a little bit. Their names are Gregory and Sylvie. Anyways, have fun with those chicks! Cherish the time when they’re little fluff muffins!!

Cute chicks

It's you bantam that has yellow legs, right? Here the feed stores get chicks from Townline, and their bantams that look like that tend to be Old English games. It depends on what came from the hatchery where you shop.

No it is the Rhode Island Reds

Very cute chicks! All the babies with green legs are Easter Eggers, and you have a nice mix of colors. They can be a little difficult to sex, because of their little combs. Keep posting pictures as the weeks go by!
The smaller 'chipmonk colored' chick with the pink/white legs I'm not sure about. What other breeds did the store claim to have?

I agree on Easter Eggers. Nothing wrong with them, I have had 8. Americauna is often misused. As for sex, it's very easy at week 3 with a pea comb to see the males.

Midweek pics. I was a little bored and it amazes me how much they change in such a short period of time.

Great pics! I have 9 chicks in my coop brooder that are 3 weeks old.
If you raise your feeder up to back height of the chicks, it will help keep the shavings out, if any are getting in the feed.

First and 6th(? - the light one with dark red in the wings) are cockerels. I suspect the black and white one (3rd) is one also.
