What if I want my head shaved, can I trust a bald barber then?

So as of 8:00 this morning when I left my house: (over half-way thru day 21/28)
6 of 7 lavenders had hatched, the last one was pipped.
5 of 6 silkie/cochins - last one I am doubtful will hatch
1 of 4 mutts (golden comet x dark brahma roo) - don't know what happened with the other 3, but I guess they could just be slow
4 pips in 7 duck eggs, but none out yet. Slow, lazy ducks! haha


I got a blue silkie from my white silkie girls covered by the blue frizzle bantam cochin! And a black one, and not sure how the others colors will shake out, but they are really pretty.
I love this little black one.


Blue one. The flash washes it out more than it really looks in person




The biggest one standing left of center is the mutt. Very pretty coloring.


snuggling in my neck


and one of the lav orps

They are so adorable, I can't wait til spring now! Thanks for sharing!

 

[OldMissionChick]

They are pretty! How old now?
Are the ducks and chicks getting along together ok?

Thanks! For some reason I didnt get an email to let me know I was quoted. The chickens are a month old on the 11th/12th and the ducks a month old on the 15th/16th/17th. I wish I knew how to vent sex. I am 99% sure at least 1 duck is a boy. I dont want to wait for the drake feathers. The chicks are turning from white to brown, excited to see what colors they end up.

Congrats on your hatch. They are so cute!

I think you give good advice.

Hard to believe how fast my little cotton balls have grown.

Shes getting 3 of the BCM chicks and 1 EE in a few more weeks when I can separate the girls

Nice! I'm still trying to decide what my "ideal" flock will be next year and what eggs I need to get there.

OEs

Lol, yes for sure. (Sorry I'm trying to post in the car and I'm not typing well.)
Since I lost my wheatens, I would like to have a nice Ameraucana rooster over a layer flock of ameraucana, EEs, OEs and Marans. Plus a quad of Orloff in a separate pen.

Then I could raise more OE, EE to play with egg color, and also get some pure Ameraucanas from the blue eggs.
