If they are the same hatch date, make certain the two smaller ones are getting to eat. That size difference to me is A Lot!

Yes! They are 3-4 weeks apart! I am not entirely sure of the exact hatch date of the 2 larger ones, but they are at least 3 weeks older!

Well, they do grow fast! Just make sure the smaller ones are getting to eat. They are right behind them in age.

My son decided to dye the older two with food coloring (red & blue). They are 7 weeks now and I think I have some guesses on the sex, but what do y’all think??

The 2 larger ones are cockerels by their comb size is large.

My roo is so mean to them, I wondered if he “knows something”!

They look super cute with the food coloring!
