New chicks

[mopsee2000]

I am so excited. Thanks for all of the advice. I got a broody hen and separated her. I placed 5 eggs under he from other hens, making 6 eggs total. I candle everyday, until day 18, then I left them alone. Yesterday, all 6 hatched and appeared healthy. I just went out today and they are all doing great. I got 5 pics and I shall take the 6th pic later today. But here they are. 2 have yellow spots on their head which means rooster while one is all black which means hen. I cannot sex the other 3 but if anyone has ideas, your help is always welcome. I move here from NY and only saw chicken eggs in a store. Pet chicken are so fun.

Also, there are 7 boxes to lay in but they all take turn laying in one box so they only eggs I can separate are by color. Last I wrote Easter Egger as a possibility but there were no blue eggs uder momma so that was my mistake, take here out of possible mothers.
