I've never had an issue teaching chicks to eat, they always just seemed to catch on with me. :/

Ok we now have either 2 or 3, I counted three but my broody has a very fluffy chest so couldn't see them all at once! Looks like all the gold laced have hatched and only 2 chamois poland to go, I'd like 2 colours but I'd also be very happy with what's already hatched!
When can you tell if they are fizzled? 50/50 chance of it but all chicks looked fairly similar from just their head lol and @VWduckchick ill give the fluffy little beauts a kiss as soon as

Fantastic news   How many more eggs as she got under her ?

5 but can't tell which ones have hatched! I'm just pleased at least 2 are out

Polish are quite adorable

The 3 nearest the food simply stand, or lie, in place and barely move. The other three are rambunctious, but haven't figured out what is food or water yet as they continually pick at wood chips.

How long have they been in the brooder?

Snowbird! I see you over there, hang on a minute, I have a few more pics...

I can't get a decent shot of his comb. That is the closest I could get. He doesn't have side sprigs, but you can kind of make out how he has a few extra points in the last pic. He has the 5 straight across the top, then 2 extra going down the back side facing the rear. There are too many, but they are in a straight line. This was the best rooster of a straight run batch I got. Is it possible to breed out this carnation comb if the rest of him is decent? Feel free to comment on the hens as well. The two hens in the first pic show the range of color I have in 4 hens. One is almost totally black, which I understand may be a good mix for the rooster, and the other has much more copper and straw in her hackles. Judge them harshly if you want to. I'm not asking you to start judging birds here, I can post pics in the other thread, I just think it would be neat for these guys to see what you and other breeders are looking for in a bird

Edit: He doesn't always carry his wings that way, it's stiflingly hot here
