Official Squatch Watchers

Just worked on moving a bunch of my chicks out to the brooder. I moved Robinson (I'm 95% sure he's male) and the first two Dark/White chicks out to a 5x5 pen on grass with a night box. I think I'm going to put a hot plate in the box for them because the temp is supposed to be pretty variable the next few days. I think I'm going to have to cull that last keet to hatch. It has an umbilical protrusion that is fairly large (pencil eraser sized) and it can't walk.

Robinson is going to be a gorgeous bird. Hes.... what 3 weeks old and his legs are thicker around than my pinky.
 
We had some gorgeous weather and ours is headed down also . I can't remember what May weather is supposed to be like :idunno . Actually wish it would stay on the cold side and no rain, so I wouldn't need to have the grass cut. That's my dream

Actually, I got my wires crossed. According to my breeding program. I only need cockerels from HAL and my original girls, not pullets! That's a relief. I need pullets from this year's cockerels and my original trio next year. That means that Robinson MAY be a keeper!
Ignore the turd, look at the legs!
