My new additions to the flock are growing up

Started out :




Now laying hens :




The flock keeps them in line but they are now sleeping on the top 2 bars of the chicken ladder with the rest of the ladies.

They're beautiful! Is the black one an orpington?

So pretty!

It doesn't take long for them to grow up, does it? Enjoy them!

Thank you - they do grow fast. The black one was a rescue ( abandoned at the local high school ) thought maybe it was a australorp as it was growing , but its comb doesn't look right for that. I assume a mix breed. maybe an orph or australorp cross of some kind. I posted in the what breed section but never got a clear answer. She was my first rescue chick I have kept.

Growing up didn't take long, did it? Good looking girls!
