The two rosettas tux's have white wing tips, one more than the other.

The last egg had a premature chick maybe 1 1/2 weeks developed, looked like a pharaoh. Couldn't really tell what went wrong with that one.
So 6/20 eggs, 30% hatch from shipped eggs can't complain too much. Two rosetta tuxedos, one tibetan tuxedo, one rosetta, one roux dilute, and one pharaoh.

You do a beautiful job photographing these chicks! Well done! Lovely composure

In the bottom photo, I'm loving the dark marking on its little face. *EDIT* I love its red coloring too.

They are all adorable!

And yes, beautiful pictures! How did you do it? On their level in the brooder! My gosh, all the little stinkers i've had run around !

 

[Dingo]

Yes TCP, they seem to love posing too. I just put my point and shoot in the brooder and they swarm it, the rosetta especially.

These photos are from a point & shoot? Which one?

O.K.
I have a really nice point and shoot, digital camera from kodak. even has macro.
But when I get near babies they run around. How did you get them to sit still.
And even with the large view window that it has, it would be hard to see from in the bator, so did you stand on your head?

Seriously,
Beautiful pictures and I'm so impressed and jealous!

Thanks. My camera is an outdated Canon power shot A1100IS 12.1MP.
My current brooder is a little rubbermaide container, it gives the advantage of being able to see the camera from the outside. They didn't hold still except for the pics where they're half asleep. Just a matter of catching the times when they pause for half a second.
