Pipd's Peeps!

[pipdzipdnreadytogo]

Sorry, was having some issues with uploading! As suspected, my issue was the number of pictures on the previous page. Anyway, here are the pictures of the Easter-eggers at about one week old! Starting with the EHAL babies:

B2 'Bluie' - BOY what a comb!

G1 'Tank', just because 'she's a little tank.

G2 'Greenie'. I'm liking the hint of brown coming through on her wings.

And the Meyer babies:

Miss Brownie-bite

Miss Poofy-face Those cheeks!

Poofy-twin, bantam baby. Her wings are even coming in very similar to Poofy-face!

Silvery, the other bantam. No change in the toes so far

So sorry I haven't posted here in so long! I completely forgot about this thread.
The babies are so precious I have chick-fever bad, lol! Miss Poofy-Face is so adorable.
How is the precious Crashie doing?

Hi, Cluckcluck! Long time, no see!


Crashie? Well, as some of y'all might remember, I lost Trudi last year, rather abruptly, and so Malcolm was alone. Since I had always wanted Crash to eventually go outside to live, I introduced her to Mal, and once Crashie got over her initial shyness, they hit it off pretty well and spent the winter together! Now that spring has come, I think they've really bonded as a pair, though. Crash would much rather spend her time with Malcolm than with silly, stinky humans. But she's happy, playing in mud all day and swimming in their pool any time she wants, and that's what's important.

To long!

Oh, man. Sorry about Trudi
That's wonderful they bonded so well though! I've found with ducks that they are not like chickens when it comes to humans, most like to be left alone.
But as long as Crash is happy, that's great.

The babies are growing up to be so pretty! Love the color on the silver ones. Also love the fluffy face. Hope your day has been well, and hopefully better than mine. Got attacked by a rooster at work and the jerk gave me four bloody marks through my jeans Glad to hear Crashie is getting along with Malcolm.

Shadow rabbit 10, hope you don't need a tetanus shot. Chicken/rooster feet and nails are not clean or sanitary.

True I didn't think of that. I was wearing jeans and I don't think he tore through my jeans, but somehow he did draw blood. Luckily I just had my tetanus booster in November so I should be okay.

I agree on the ducks. I mean, I've only ever had the three, but they definitely seem to prefer the company of their own species (now that I've convinced Crash that she's a duck and not a tiny, feathered human ) as opposed to that of their keepers. Not like my hennies--you can't sit down anywhere outside without at least three of them vying for a spot on your lap!

Oh, man, not that same one again? I'm frustrated for you! Good thing about your tetanus booster, I'm not sure if I would have thought of that, either!

I can't tell which one it is, there's a bunch of roosters and they all look the same. And they're all rude. Hopefully the weather is getting nicer where you are and you can take some nice spring pictures. Hope the babies are doing well.

I can't believe they'd just let that keep up and not do anything with those darn roosters! Sorry you have to deal with that at work!

I definitely need to! It has been nice and warm here, but we've had nothing but RAIN for what seems like forever! I do have pictures of the OEGBs inside today for their 5-weekiversary, though! Names are on the pictures:

(His poor comb... )

Acher and Toli are starting to look like miniatures of their father. And my girls keep getting sweeter--I get why people love OEGBs so much now, beyond just that they're too stinkin' cute!

Just a couple more shots of Toli and Vega being extra cute. They were curious about this chicken pitcher that's sitting on my desk right beside the paper towel studio.

This weekend, or maybe even a little sooner, I'm going to start letting the younger ones mingle with them without the divider. With supervision, however, as the boys have already dinged up poor B2, who hopped out of their corner into the OEGBs' section the other day. The girls seem pretty gentle with them through the fence, so I think they'll be okay with them. Maybe I'll just separate the boys out while I'm not in the room so that the babies can start integrating together without me having to worry about them.

Speaking of the younger babies... Silvery and G1 were chest bumping awfully ferociously this morning... Possible indication that they're both little fellas?
